Today, portraying conflict in historical literature has become an important topic, especially in the context of con flict resolution. This is closely related to the potential use of different historical writing methods in textbooks to change views on conflict, strengthen trust among communities, and reduce structural and cultural violence [1] . Conflicts can be triggered by the complex interplay between simple common understandings by society and more efficient understandings of internal resource utilisation[2] . This topic often triggers debates involving various groups in society and the politi cal sphere, including governments, historians, and various institutions from the social, cultural, or religious sectors. Ac cording to Bernardoni[3] , controversial historical issues still strongly influence various collective movements today, in cluding encouraging debate and reflection and emphasising the construction of critical thinking citizenship. According to Saefudin et al.[4] , this related discussion usually centres on the role of history textbooks, whether as a tool to influence students’ interpretations through the structure of arguments and meanings they contain or simply as an instrument to justify political regimes for their violent actions
