dc.description	This paper attempts to analyze the critical issue of textbook marketization. Through gathering news and public opinion on textbooks related to curricu-lum reform for compulsory education (1-9) from major newspapers, the researcher summarized three main issues related to curriculum reform: 1. textbook marketization; 2. textbook editing and review policy; 3. the use of textbooks. Here the researcher only examines the issue of textbook marketization. Based on the analysis of a disputed issue and the reflection on policy, the conclusions of this paper are as follows: 1. the problem of textbook pricing is lacking an effective solution; 2. the role of government in the textbook market should be redefined. This paper also critiques the approach of discourse analysis.
