Who We Are: America's Fight for Universal Progress, from Franklin to Kennedy: Volume II - 1830s to 1890s (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798314482810)

From author Anton Chaitkin:

I am writing Who We Are as an American patriot and dissident. My country is misled by those serving the interests not of the nation but of a global clique; making our present outlook a menace to our own survival and to that of mankind.

We are fighting a continuous worldwide war, with degraded public services, and collapsing infrastructure.
But uncountable trillions are in offshore and criminal money flows, fraudulent speculation and spending for permanent war.
Only the deepest historical inquiry can adequately examine how this sordid mess came about, and give needed assistance to the search for a possible remedy.
Who We Are explains

• How the USA rose to industrial power, high living standards, and world influence
• Who promoted this rise, by what strategy and through which projects
• Who has opposed the nation's progress, and for what reasons.

Only this contrast of the two operative sides - the republic versus the empire - will allow the reader to see

• How we have gone wrong
• How other nations - some deemed our enemies -- have adopted policies which made America successful, policies which we have abandoned; and
• How our misleaders represent the interests we have always had to fight against to win national progress.

We have to know ourselves, in order to build a new philosophy for our society.
