Abstract | Compares Japanese "kokugo" (national language) elementary reading textbooks with American elementary reading textbooks. Kokugo textbooks present (1) a safe, predictable, monocultural world; (2) an emphasis on empathy and feeling; (3) a focus on nature and animals, rather than humans; and (4) memories of the Pacific War. New 1992 textbooks introduce a more international component. (KS) |
