Domobranstvo in povojni poboji skozi prizmo pouka zgodovine/Home Guard and Post-war Killings through the Lens of History Teaching

The subjects of Home Guard and extra-judicial post-war killings are considered to be sensitive issues of history teaching and demand a particular teaching approach that ought to be indicated already in syllabi and textbooks. The contribution discusses syllabi and textbooks in the final year of gimnazija programmes, i.e. general upper secondary school, which were in use after 1990. It has been established that the subject of Home Guard is included in all textbooks, whereas the subject of post-war killings was not included in the textbook dating from 1984, which was in use up to 1996. The subjects of Home Guard are included in the syllabi; the subjects of post-war killings are not included in the 1992 syllabus.
