Americanization And Anti-Americanism : The German Encounter With American Culture After 1945

Attribution
edited by Alexander Stephan
Publication Details
Book, Berghahn Books, 2005
Description
The ongoing discussions about globalization, American hegemony and September 11 and its aftermath have moved the debate about the export of American culture and cultural anti-Americanism to center stage of world politics. Drawing on examples from history, culture studies, film, radio, and the arts, the authors explore the political and cultural parameters of Americanization and anti-Americanism, as reflected in the reception and rejection of American popular culture and, more generally, in European-American relations in the “American Century.” (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)

The Conquerors : Roosevelt, Truman And The Destruction Of Hitler’s Germany, 1941-1945

Attribution
Michael Beschloss
Publication Details
Book, Simon & Schuster, 2002
Description
FDR’s actions so shocked his closest friend in the Cabinet, Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr., that Morgenthau risked their friendship by accusing the President of “acquiescence” in the “murder of the Jews.” Finally it shows how the unprepared new President Truman managed to pick up the pieces and push Stalin and Churchill to accede to a bargain that would let the Anglo-Americans block Soviet threats against Western Europe and ensure that the world would not have to fear another Adolf Hitler. (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)

Attribution
Steven Casey
Publication Details
Book, Oxford University Press, 2001
Description
America’s struggle against Nazism is one of the few aspects of World War II that has escaped controversy.
