Free Download Why America Misunderstands the World: National Experience and Roots of Misperception By Paul Pillar
2016 | 224 Pages | ISBN: 0231540353 | PDF | 1 MB
Drawing a line from colonial events to America's handling of modern international terrorism, Pillar shows how presumption and misperception bolstered the "with us or against us" attitude of the George W. Bush administration. Fundamental misunderstandings have created a cycle in which threats are underestimated before an attack occurs and then are overestimated after they happen. By exposing this longstanding tradition of misperception, Pillar hopes the United States can develop policies that better address international realities rather than biased beliefs.Paul R. Pillar ties the American public's misconceptions about foreign threats and behaviors to the nation's history and geography, arguing that success occurs in spite of, not because of, the public's worldview. By exposing this longstanding challenge, Pillar hopes the United States can develop policies that better address international realities.
