America's world identity: the politics of exclusion

Trama

What is America's national identity? This study offers a new perspective into this question. It argues that this identity is constructed rather than essential and reflects the politics of exclusion. This identificatory exclusion has been globalized through American economic, cultural, political, and military expansion.
