God, Guns, Gold And Glory: American Character and its Discontents
Autor Lauren Langman, George Lundskowen Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 feb 2018
From a small group of devout Puritan settlers, the USA ultimately became the richest, most powerful Empire in the history of the world. Yet it is now in a process of implosion and decay. This book, inspired by Frankfurt School Critical Theory, offers a unique historical, cultural and characterological analysis of American national character and its underlying psychodynamics.
