Abstract

The role of textbooks is very important because it has a significant impact on students. The purpose of this study is to analyse the National History Textbook in the Field of Economic History. The research method is using Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). The CDA research technique first determines the units to analyse in a well- defined textual sample, codes the units based on the a priori criteria set by the researcher, then reduces the data and finally draws conclusions. The results of the research are related to economic history, there is an element of delegitimizing the colonial government’s efforts in developing the economy. In the case of forced cultivation, the emphasis is not on the process of increasing state revenues but rather on exploiting the social impact of the economic policy on society. So that the various economic foundations that had been laid by the colonial government were never studied and only remembered as a humanitarian tragedy. This is a representation of inculcating anti-colonial values in the Indonesian younger generation.
