This study analyses the 1975 History Curriculum as a New Order government policy in education. The research problem discussed is what was the New Order's political policy through the Department of Education towards history learning? The analysis was conducted using the Political Discourse Analysis approach developed by Fairclough. The results of the study show that the 1975 History Curriculum adopted the United States curriculum to gain political and economic support from Western countries. The 1975 History Curriculum also used textbooks from the neoscientific model pioneered by Sartono Kartodirdjo. The aim was to gain political support from modern professional historians. The implementation of 1975 Curriculum resulted in history teachers losing their autonomy. In addition, the function of history teachers to instil historical consciousness was also no longer able to be carried out because their function changed to conveying information contained in textbooks. From the student's perspective, learning history has become memorization.
