Is America paradoxically a victim of its own political and economic power? This book seeks to understand the terrible attacks of September 11th within a broader historical, political and ideological context. Rather than drawing on simple 'clash of civilisation' oppositions, the author argues that it is important to have an awareness of the complex historical processes which influence: America's sense of itself and its changing view of the world How the world, especially the Muslim world, views America The changing nature of international politics and the global system since the end of the cold war. Drawing on a wide range of contemporary and historical sources Richard Crockatt has written a balanced, subtle and highly readable book which provides genuine insight into American foreign policy, anti-Americanism and Islamic fundamentalism. It will be important reading for all those seeking to understand the background to the 'war on terror'.National characteristics, AmericanAnti-AmericanismSeptember 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001CausesSeptember 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001InfluenceWar on Terrorism, 2001-2009Islamic fundamentalismPolitical aspectsGlobalizationPolitical aspectsUnited StatesForeign relations2001-2009United StatesForeign relations1989-United StatesForeign public opinionNational characteristics, American.Anti-Americanism.September 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001Causes.September 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001Influence.War on Terrorism, 2001-2009.Islamic fundamentalismPolitical aspects.GlobalizationPolitical aspects.327.73Crockatt Richard503801MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910956698503321America embattled1238137UNINA
