The Peril of Paternalism: The Imposition of Education on Cuba by the United States.
Epstein, Erwin H.
American Journal of Education, v96 n1 p1-23 Nov 1987
The American military administration that governed Cuba from 1898 to 1909 foisted its own system of values on the subordinate population. American culture was imposed, with the schools as the vehicle of "Americanization." This article describes that imposition and considers its long-term impact. (Author/BJV)
