There are many reasons to criticise American policies, politics and even society, but a crucial distinction must be drawn between criticism and prejudice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCharting the development and adaptation of this anti-American tradition, O'Connor maintains that it is important to contextualise it within the particularities of the American experience and the global reach of the United States' influence and power. He argues for a move away from stereotypes and caricatures towards more specific and profitable discussions about American actions and policies. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOffering precise and useful ways of understanding anti-Americanism and American exceptionalism that place the terms in their relevant political contexts, this volume is a useful and engaging resource for those researching or studying American politics and ideology, foreign policy, American culture and international relations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brendon O'Connor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415474299\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415474290\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/13\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.46d","brand":"Brendon O'Connor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48136091205887,"sku":"9780415474290","price":57.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d3d3e33b-1abb-4fe1-b29c-8f7bfe2182ba.jpg?v=1770160450","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/anti-americanism-and-american-exceptionalism-brendon-oconnor-9780415474290","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
