Globalization of United States History: Six Strategies.
Benitez, Helena
Social Education, v58 n3 p142-44 Mar 1994
Asserts that U. S. history instruction is too often characterized by a narrow focus on national events and leaders viewed through a monocultural lens. Proposes an approach that replaces this narrow view of the past with one that regards the contemporary United States as the result of both internal struggle and global interaction. (CFR)
