Nineteenth-century globalization made America exceptional. On the
back of European money and immigration, America became an empire
with considerable skill at conquest but little experience
administering other people's, or its own, affairs, which it
preferred to leave to the energies of private enterprise. The
nation's resulting state institutions and traditions left America
immune to the trends of national development and ever after unable
to persuade other peoples to follow its example.
In this concise, argumentative book, Eric Rauchway traces how, from
the mid-1800s to the early 1900s, the world allowed the United
States to become unique and the consequent dangers we face to this
very day.
