Plural Vision for Plural Schools: How We Can Disagree Yet Both Be Right.
Pearce, Richard
International Schools Journal, v20 n2 p39-45 Apr 2001
Asserts that international schools are dominated by American and British schools. Uses the terms "Old World" (history is accumulated understanding, and people must be sensitive to a complex world) and "New World" (history is a challenge to overcome, and people must aim to build a better world) to differentiate between societies and help international schools move towards mutual understanding. (Contains 15 references.) (NB)
