(7 years ago)The Swedishs are aiming to remove the entire history older than the 18th century and focus students on Holocaust, Hitler, World War II and post-modern periods by the end of the 20th century.

The latest Rome, ancient Greece, will no longer be taught about the great Swedish Empire, the Swedish Committee for Education reports.
The committee proposes that the subject of history be radically changed.
They plan to spend more time in education on gender issues, climate change and migration.
In higher classes, which attend students aged 13 to 15, history will no longer be legalized, dating back to 1700.
It has been proposed that ancient Greece, ancient Rome and the era when Sweden was a great power (1611-1718) and ruled the countries around the Baltic Sea must hide from the history books for younger people today, KOHA Ditore writes.
Resigned plans are the result of a lack of time to learn history in schools, according to the Swedish Committee for Education.
High-class students should focus more in the 19th century and on Holocaust, cold war and ideas that shaped Sweden during the postwar era, according to the Committee, reports Portal Svd.de.
This goal, however, has fostered resistance among history professors.
“is terrible, strange and absurd”, claims historian Dick Harrison.
He stresses that he is obliged to react and underscores the fact that the ancient “history is necessary.
“All that surrounds us is the legacy of ancient Greeks”, Harrison points out, warning that if the proposal becomes reality, Swedes around the world will be in unpleasant situations.
He called the proposal for “the creation of history” in Sweden sick.
