The Cold War in the Curriculum.
Carlson, Dennis
Educational Leadership, v42 n8 p57-60 May 1985
Secondary-level history textbooks' treatments of United States-Soviet relations can be biased and misleading. Ideological treatments present the relationship as a struggle between good and evil; "real politik" treatments recognize opposing viewpoints but are usually subordinate interpretations. Neither approach discusses U.S.-Soviet relations in a broader, more global context. (PGD)
