In this magisterial book, Ian Tyrrell shows that while the term is a relatively new one, the idea that American identity might be historically and globally distinctive emerged with the nation itself. As the country grew, the issue became the degree of exceptionality and how it was expressed. And as the country became a part of the global order, its exceptionalism came increasingly into question. How did a purportedly unique nation explain its entanglement with persistent global topics like slavery and racial discrimination; labor exploitation; settler colonialism; and more? Today, even as demands to honor America's exceptionalism have grown more strident, Tyrrell argues that the material and moral evidence for it-if there ever was any-has withered away"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Exceptionalism $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Historiography. 651 0 $a United States $x Philosophy. $x Philosophy. 650 6 $a Exceptionnalisme $z Ãtats-Unis. 650 7 $a Exceptionalism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01748515 650 7 $a Historiography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00958221 650 7 $a Philosophy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01060777 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 650 7 $a Exceptionalism $z United States $2 nli 651 7 $a United States $x Historiography $2 nli 651 7 $a United States $x Philosophy $x Philosophy $2 nli 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20230616010113.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1F6671160C0B11EEB5545B5250ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b NIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
