National Lies: The Truth About American Values

Charles Churchyard
4.9/5 (27090 ratings)
Description:What makes America tick? What has caused it to crack? There are two large unanswered questions about the United States of America. First, how did a small and weak country in 1800 become a world power by 1900 and then by 2000 the only superpower on the globe? Second, in spite of all their strength and prosperity, why do Americans today feel nervous, discontent, and--above all--guilty? The collective apology has become a commonplace gesture in the affairs of public life. It is as if Americans almost feel ashamed of their success. National Lies: The Truth About American Values by Charles Churchyard has the answers to those questions. Other books deal with symptoms; this one gets at the underlying causes. It identifies and examines the forces that are in operation beneath the chaotic surface of daily events. It presents an original and comprehensive theory that explains the source of both national power and national weakness. First, it demonstrates how the unique configuration of American values resulted in tremendous civic might and social affluence. Second, it reveals how a fundamental contradiction that exists within these values is the source of present-day discontent.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
