A stunningly insightful account of the global political and
economic system, sustained first by Britain and now by America,
that has created the modern world.
The key to the two countries' predominance, Mead argues, lies in
the individualistic ideology inherent in the Anglo-American
religion. Over the years Britain and America's liberal democratic
system has been repeatedly challeged--by Catholic Spain and Louis
XIV, the Nazis, communists, and Al Qaeda--and for the most part, it
has prevailed. But the current conflicts in the Middle East
threaten to change that record unless we foster a deeper
understanding of the conflicts between the liberal world system and
its foes.
