America, América - Greg Grandin - książka
Producent: Penguin Books
Described as both "dazzling" and "sweeping," this contribution is likened to a once-in-a-generation impact by Naomi Klein. The "Irish Times" draws parallels with the great epic novels of Gabriel García Márquez, noting that "America, América" at times reads as their historical counterpart. The narrative explores the unique identity of the United States, intricately connected with its interactions to the south, akin to how Latin America's development was significantly influenced by the northern giant. Spanning 500 years, it delves into the era from the Spanish Conquest to the political upheavals of the 20th century, highlighting the continuous and dynamic exchanges that shaped the Americas. This scholarly work offers a transformative perspective on issues like slavery, racism, the origins of universal humanism, and social democracy's role in countering extremism. "America, América" combines depth with clarity to reveal how the mutual influences between the U.S. and Latin America molded the legal frameworks, institutions, and ideas that define today's world. Based on an extensive range of sources, this book presents a refreshing new account of Western hemisphere history.
