In \u003ci\u003eAmerica Against the World\u003c\/i\u003e, Pew Research Center president Andrew Kohut and Bruce Stokes consider the surprising findings of Pew's unprecedented survey of world opinion to understand why the world has turned against America: where once we were considered the champion of democracy, we are now seen as a militant hyperpower. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe answer: Americans' go-it-alone attitudes have pushed the world away. From our business endeavors abroad to the Bush administration's preemptive war policy, exceptional individualism--in particular, our belief in personal responsibility and our unclouded optimism--have encouraged the world to view the United States as a bully and a threat. Former secretary of state Madeleine K. Albright argues in her foreword that we cannot stop the spread of anti-Americanism without truly understanding who we are. \u003ci\u003eAmerica Against the World\u003c\/i\u003e provides the insights to take that step.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrew Kohut, Bruce Stokes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0805083057\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780805083057\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martins Press-3PL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.57h x 5.54w x 0.73d","brand":"Andrew Kohut","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46721272217855,"sku":"9780805083057","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d3564fea-7cae-4c39-bded-391a5e41a8fb.jpg?v=1742752366","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/america-against-the-world-andrew-kohut-9780805083057","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
