A Nation Unmade By War Av Tom Engelhardt

<p>As veteran author Tom Engelhardt argues, despite having a more massive, technologically advanced, and better-funded military than any other power on the planet, in the last decade and a half of constant war across the Greater Middle East and parts of Africa, the United States has won nothing. Its unending wars, in fact, have only contributed to a world growing more chaotic by the second.</p><p>From its founding, the United States has been a nation made by wars. Through incisive analysis and characteristic wit, Engelhardt ponders whether in this century, its citizenry and government will be unmade by them.</p><p><strong>Tom Engelhardt</strong> created and runs the TomDispatch.com website, a project of the Nation Institute, where he is a fellow. He is the author of <em>The United States of Fear, Shadow Government</em>, and <em>The American Way of War </em>all published by Haymarket Books; a highly praised history of American triumphalism in the cold war, <em>The End of Victory Culture</em>, and a novel, <em>The Last Days of Publishing</em>.</p>
