Sobre este artículo
New York: Broadway Paperbacks, 2012. 1st Printing. Trade Paperback. Very Good. 5x0x8. First printing. Spine creased, edges slightly worn. 2012 Trade Paperback. 275 pp. "Written with bracing wit and intelligence, Rachel Maddow's Drift argues that we've drifted away from America's original ideals and become a nation weirdly at peace with perpetual war. To understand how we've arrived at such a dangerous place, Maddow takes us from the Vietnam War to today's war in Afghanistan, along the way exploring Reagan's radical presidency, the disturbing rise of executive authority, the gradual outsourcing of our war-making capabilities to private companies, the plummeting percentage of American families whose children fight our constant wars for us, and even the changing fortunes of G.I. Joe. Ultimately, she shows us just how much we stand to lose by allowing the scope of American military power to overpower our political discourse. Sensible yet provocative, dead serious yet seriously funny, Drift will reinvigorate a "loud and jangly" political debate about our vast and confounding national security state." Keywords: RACHEL MADDOW DRIFT UNMOORING OF AMERICAN MILITARY POWER AMERICAN HISTORY POLITICAL CURRENT AFFAIRS EVENTS
