A Confrontation with the Past: The Japanese Textbook Dispute.
Bollag, Burton
American Educator, v25 n4 p22-27 Win 2001
Explains that writing national history involves much more than arranging facts and dates, which is why, over 50 years after the end of World War II, the Japanese are still arguing about what actually happened during that time, Japan's role in war crimes and aggressive actions, and how to present it all in textbooks.
