Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - At the turn of the twentieth century, the US government viewed education as one sure way of civilizing 'others' under its sway--among them American Indians and, after 1898, Filipinos. Teaching Empire considers how teachers took up this task, first at the Carlisle Indian Boarding School in Pennsylvania, opened in 1879, and then in a school system set up amid an ongoing rebellion launched by Filipinos. Drawing upon the records of fifty-five teachers at Carlisle and thirty-three sent to the Philippines--including five who worked in both locations--the book reveals the challenges of translating imperial policy into practice, even for those most dedicated to the imperial mission.

In their stories, Elisabeth Eittreim finds the problems common to all classrooms--how to manage students and convey knowledge--complicated by their unique circumstances, particularly the military conflict in the Philippines. Eittreim's research shows the dilemma presented by these schools' imperial goal: 'pouring in' knowledge that purposefully dismissed and undermined the values, desires, and protests of those being taught.
