Trends toward institutional bigness and standardization have coexisted with and sometimes have given rise to a countervailing pattern of individualized expression and consumption. Today Americans are exposed to more kinds of images and music, choose from an infinite variety of products, and have a wide range of options in terms of social and sexual arrangements. In short, they enjoy more ways to express their individuality despite the ascendancy of immense global corporations, and this volume imaginatively explores every facet of this unique American experience. 606 $aUnited States -- History -- 1945- 606 $aUnited States - History - 1945- 606 $aUnited States - Politics and government - 1945-1989 606 $aUnited States -- Politics and government -- 1945-1989 606 $aUnited States -- Politics and government -- 1989- 606 $aUnited States - Politics and government - 1989- 606 $aUnited States -- Social conditions -- 1945- 606 $aUnited States - Social conditions - 1945- 606 $aRegions & Countries - Americas$2HILCC 606 $aHistory & Archaeology$2HILCC 606 $aUnited States - General$2HILCC 615 4$aUnited States -- History -- 1945-. 615 4$aUnited States - History - 1945-. 615 4$aUnited States - Politics and government - 1945-1989. 615 4$aUnited States -- Politics and government -- 1945-1989. 615 4$aUnited States -- Politics and government -- 1989-. 615 4$aUnited States - Politics and government - 1989-. 615 4$aUnited States -- Social conditions -- 1945-. 615 4$aUnited States - Social conditions - 1945-. 615 7$aRegions & Countries - Americas 615 7$aHistory & Archaeology 615 7$aUnited States - General 676 $a973.92 702 $aCarnes$b Mark, 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777927503321 996 $aThe Columbia History of Post-World War II America$93741812 997 $aUNINA
