Latin America in American History Textbooks: A Comparison of American History Texts for Secondary Schools Published from 1927 to 1932 with Texts Published from 1937 to 1942

Ever since the inauguration of President F.D. Roosevelt's Good Neighbor policy in 1933, the Americas have become increasingly conscious of the need of mutual understanding and friendship. They have recognised that economic relations are not the only basis for inter-American cooperation. More and more emphasis has gradually been placed upon the need for cultural understanding. The basis for such cooperation lo an Intellectual and educational problem to be delt with in our schools. The United States Office of Educations the Division of Intellectual Cooperation, created in 1928 at the Pan-American Union; the Latin American Bureau of the National Catholic Welfare Conference, and numerous other agencies are promoting an educational program of Pan-American relations to which the present international emergency has added new interest, directed toward hemisphere solidarity and hemisphere defense.
