Pledging Allegiance - Learning Nationalism at the El Paso-Juarez Border (Hardcover)

Now that national borders are increasingly being challenged by economic and political globalization, how should we view the patriotic messages sent to our children in public schools? This book offers a unique comparison of how public schools on each side of the U.S.-Mexico border advance cultural and national values.
The authors illuminate the contradictions and complexities of culture and learning through the eyes of students, teachers and administrators. Examining topics from nationalism and civic ritual to language and bilingualism, this book will be valuable to all those interested in the teaching and formation of national and cultural identity.
