In this aricle I will analyse the education of history, particuraly of modern history in Japan as an example in order to show several reasons of necessary change of the paradigm in school curriculum and teaching. In general, many of us have been taught that the Meiji Restoration does not make us change so much in life and society and people were still oppressed after the Meiji Era had begun. Most Japanese historians and the textbooks which they wrote are too much influenced by the theory based on the United States' policy of the occupation of Japan and the historical viewpoints of the Soviet Union, both of which intended to destroy the Japanese ultra-nationalism and nationalism. However, now some Japanese historians have wanted to review the Japanese modern history, and so we need to look over those reviews openly and properly. Therefore, I would like to propose the new standpoint to look our modern history in Japan as a "Liberalistic Standpoint in the Study of History". As a result, our educational paradigm of modern Japanese history should be changed. We need to be liberated from the old paradigm of Japanese education of history from now on.
