Book Review

Making the World like Us: Education, Cultural Expansion, and the American Century. By Liping Bu. (Westport: Praeger, 2003. xx, 279 pp. $69.95,ISBN 0-275-97694-7.)

This timely book analyzes the Americanization/democratization of the world, the civilizing missions, and the evangelical fervor in support of U.S. cultural expansion, which are central to foreign policy under the post-9/11 Bush Doctrine. It provides a deeper appreciation of the expansionist impulse of a nation that self-consciously offers itself as a model to humankind, a nation imbued with a belief in its own cultural (and other) superiority and duty-bound to realize its Manifest Destiny to lead the world.
