The creation of new school system in the Philippines in 1898 and educational reforms in occupied Japan, both with stated goals of democratization, speaks to a singular vision of America as savior, following its politics of violence with benevolent recuperation. The pedagogy of recovery- in which schooling was central and natives were forced to accept empire through education--might have shown how Americans could be good occupiers, but it also created projects of Orientalist racial management : Filipinos had to be educated and civilized, while the Japanese had to be reeducated and "de-civilized".
