In the middle of the 1970s, America entered a new era of doubt and
division. Major political, economic and social crises-Watergate,
Vietnam, the rights revolutions of the 1960s-had cracked the
existing social order. In the years that followed, the story of our
own lifetimes would be written. Longstanding historical fault lines
over income inequality, racial division and a revolution in gender
roles and sexual norms would deepen and fuel a polarised political
landscape. In Fault Lines, leading historians Kevin M. Kruse and
Julian E. Zelizer reveal how the divisions of the present day began
almost four decades ago, and how they were echoed and amplified by
a fracturing media landscape that witnessed the rise of cable TV,
the internet and social media. How did the United States become so
divided? Fault Lines offers one of the few comprehensive,
wide-angle history views towards an answer.
