Why the American Century
Olivier Zunz
Olivier Zunz shows how American elites appropriated the twentieth century. Policymakers, corporate managers, engineers, scientists, and social scientists promoted a social contract of abundance and a controversial theory of pluralism. Their efforts created a model of middle class behavior for America and for the rest of the world.
The book is a comprehensive publicistic work in the form of essays in which social, religious, political and media phenomena are read in the manner of theological hermeneutics, through the prism of a theological eye. It is composed of five chapters.
One of the key texts in social theory. In this book, Habermas deals with issues of theoretical and practical difference, emphasizing the importance of communication in shaping social reality.
