- Abstract
- In 1980s, religion courses in Korean high schools were regularized and it resulted in the formation of a common religion curriculum. Thus, religion textbooks published after the regularization can be said to follow the curriculum and are wholly different from those rhat the schools established by particular religions had used before. Universal education, consisting of educations of religious knowledge and religious sense, was added to the old parochial education of particular religions with regularization.
Actually, most private schools stablished by particular religions in other countries have used textbooks for only parochial education. In the Korean case, it is, above all, important that the current religion textbooks for high school students are based on a common religion curriculum. Moreover, it is really significant that the extent of how much universal religious education needs to be expanded in the textbooks is discussed in a public forum in Korea.
Parochial contents of particular religion will have to be sharply removed and universal contents of religion must be expanded in the future. Above all, the real aspect proper to religion textbook is thought to be characterized by the education of a religious sense in which human comes to pursue a transformation of his inner being.
