註釋Covering the period from 1789 to the time of 9/11 and its aftermath, Ian Tyrrell argues that the shaping of the United States was part of wider economic, social, cultural and political processes, such as: political democracy, reform movements, economic development, migration, the rise of the nation state, American cultural expansion abroad, imperialism, the dramatic impacts of war and revolutions. Tyrrell explains that the US did not grow in isolation from the forces of globalization and other transnational pressures; rather, the nation has had an uneasy relationship with the rest of the world, in which key movements and institutions promoted globalizing processes while, at the same time, preserving and developing American distinctiveness. - Publisher.
