Britain and European Integration through British History Schoolbooks Published between 1961 and 1971.

Millat, Gilbert

European Journal of Teacher Education, v16 n2 p125-36 1993

Analysis of how 29 British history textbooks, published between 1961 and 1971, covered Britain's struggle to enter the European Economic Community (EEC) reveals that these texts display an Anglocentric bias and overemphasize the impact of Anglo-French hostility on the actions of Britain and the other members of the EEC.
