The Treatment of Propaganda in Selected Social Studies Texts.

Fleming, Dan B.

Social Education, v49 n1 p53-57 Jan 1985

A survey found that secondary U.S. history textbooks provided the most coverage of propaganda and included the largest number of examples for student analysis. Very little coverage of propaganda was found in world geography and world history texts. A few government texts provided excellent coverage, but most gave the subject little attention. (RM)
