Produktinformationen zu „American Umpire “
Commentators call the United States an empire: occasionally a benign empire, sometimes an empire in denial, often a destructive empire. In American Umpire Elizabeth Cobbs Hoffman asserts instead that America has performed the role of umpire since 1776, compelling adherence to rules that gradually earned broad approval, and violating them as well.

Rezension zu „American Umpire “
[A] wholly engaging analysis of U.S. history...One of the book's underlying themes is a convincing critique of the depiction of the U.S. as an empire. In doing this, Cobbs Hoffman lends the long lens of history to contemporary debates on U.S. foreign policymaking...A key strength of this book is that it successfully embeds the founding and unfolding history of the U.S. into these broader global trends. In doing so, "American Umpire" engages in debates in the fields of global and international histories on the place of the U.S. in world affairs.--J. Simon Rofe"Times Higher Education" (05/23/2013)
