중국에서 애국주의 운동은 1990년대 들어 급변하는 세계정세 및 국내정세의 변화에 따른 반작용으로부터 시작되었다. 특히 1당이 국가를 지배하는 사회주의 중국의 특성상 애국주의 운동은 중국 정부의 애국주의 교육 강화 지침에 따라 전 사회적인 운동으로 번져나갔고, 초등 사회과 교육에서도 애국주의가 중요한 내용을 차지하게 되었다. 이로 인해 통합교과인 중국 초등 ‘社會’에는 중국의 역사, 지리, 문화, 국정에 대한 이해 및 이를 통한 자긍심 고취 등 애국주의 내용을 포함하게 되었다. 또한 '品德與社會'도 내용의 기술에 있어서는 ‘社會’에 비해 중국의 고대 역사 및 문화에 대한 지나친 미화가 줄어들긴 했지만, ‘세계에 우뚝 서는 중국’이라는 새로운 애국주의 요소를 하나 더 추가하여 여전히 ‘중화민족’의 우월성을 강조하고 있다. 본 연구에 따르면 중국 초등사회과의 애국주의 교육 내용은 ① 유구한 역사와 문화에 대한 특별한 강조 ② 근현대사 및 중국 공산당의 업적 강조 ③ 지역적 특수성에 대한 이해와 국토에 대한 사랑의 강조 ④ 통일된 다민족 국가에 대한 강조 ⑤ 중국의 경제적 성장 및 국제적 지위 향상을 통한 자긍심 고취 등이 중심 내용을 이루고 있다.
