Reseña del libro "Curing Exceptionalism: What's Wrong With how we Think About the United States? What can we do About it? (en Inglés)"

U.S. exceptionalism, the idea that the United States of America is superior to other nations, is no more fact-based and no less harmful than racism, sexism, and other forms of bigotry.The purpose of this book is to persuade you of that statement.This book examines how the United States actually compares with other countries, how people think about the comparison, what damage that thinking does, and what changes we might want to consider making."I hope Curing Exceptionalism will be part of coursework in classrooms throughout the U.S." --Kathy Kelly, co-coordinator of Voices for Creative Nonviolence."A must-read for every U.S. citizen." --Robert Fantina, author of Desertion and the American Soldier 1776-2006.Table of Contents: Introduction 6 I. How the United States Compares with Other Countries 8 II. Exceptionalist Thinking 62 III. The Damage Exceptionalism Does 122 IV. Curing This Disease 164 Acknowledgements 190 About the Author 191 End Notes 192
