Lexington Books, 2006 - 305 páginas
Cultus Americanus applies a philosophical model of political culture as ideology, religion, and myth, to a re-consideration of America's liberal consensus to explain cultural diversity in America. Author Brent Gilchrist engagingly depicts a political culture that is more complex and more cohesive than has been previously maintained that will be of great interest to scholars and students of American politics and history.
