DeCoker, Gary
Social Education, v56 n6 p319-20 Oct 1992
Discusses the tendency in the United States to blame either Japanese business or the educational system for the economic woes of the United States. Argues that, instead of choosing scapegoats, the United States should focus on solving social problems. Suggest that social studies teachers work to help students overcome prejudice toward the Japanese. (DK)
