Description

Writing from the vantage point of America’s unrivaled global dominance, historians have tended to see in the young nation the superpower it would become. This argues that, for all its vaunted claims of distinctiveness and the soaring rhetoric of “manifest destiny”, the young republic exhibited a set of anxieties not uncommon among nation-states that have emerged from long periods of colonial rule.
