Azada-Palacios problematizes the way that national identity is valued as an educational goal in Philippine schools and the way that Philippine citizenship education continues to aspire towards a homogeneity of culture. Through an examination of colonial-era documents, she traces this characteristic of colonial history, and identifies this aspiration as an unreflective perpetuation of American colonial educational policy that has not been sufficiently criticized.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowena Azada-Palacios\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350433314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350433311\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/28\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.50d","brand":"Rowena Azada-Palacios","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46747758428415,"sku":"9781350433311","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8fe52327-2466-4f69-bd8a-d6892bcacada.jpg?v=1743584652","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/postcolonial-education-and-national-identity-rowena-azada-palacios-9781350433311","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
