Hoover Senior Fellow Victor Davis Hanson brings a lifetime of scholarship in classical history, national identity, and Western civilization to these questions. In a new eBook from the Hoover Institution, America’s Exceptional Role in the World, he examines the values, structures, and civic culture that have long set the U.S. apart—and what may be at risk if we lose sight of them.
In this free resource, you’ll explore:
- Why American exceptionalism is less about superiority than about structure and values
- How liberty, openness, and constitutional governance have shaped America’s global role
- What history suggests can happen when a nation stops believing in its own purpose
If you’ve followed Victor’s work, you’ll recognize his clarity, candor, and depth here. This eBook offers an opportunity to reflect on the ideas that have guided America through challenge and change—and why they still matter.
