"Every Vietnamese Was A Gook": My Lai, Vietnam, and American Education.
Berman, David M.
Theory and Research in Social Education, v16 n2 p141-59 Spr 1988
Using the U.S. experience in Vietnam, this article argues that the U.S. world view is a product of the U.S. educational system. Specifically the article addresses three questions: (1) how the social studies curriculum is organized; (2) how textbooks are written; and (3) how instruction is shaped by these forces. (Author/BSR)
