A concise primer to the political, cultural, and social
consequences of the perpetual US global war on terror. An entire
generation of young adults has never known an America without the
War on Terror. This book contends with the pervasive effects of
post-9/11 policy and myth-making in every corner of American life.
Never-Ending War on Terror is organized around five keywords that
have come to define the cultural and political moment: homeland,
security, privacy, torture, and drone. Alex Lubin synthesizes
nearly two decades of United States war-making against terrorism by
asking how the War on Terror has changed American politics and
society, and how the War on Terror draws on historical myths about
American national and imperial identity. From the PATRIOT Act to
the hit show Homeland, from Edward Snowden to Guantanamo Bay, and
from 9/11 memorials to Trumpism, this succinct book connects
America's political economy and international relations to our
contemporary culture at every turn.
