Bol In this essential introduction to postwar America, central currents in art, film, theatre, intellectual history and media are explored alongside political and social change. The new edition has been revised and updated in the light of new scholarship and the last two chapters now cover recent events, including the rise of Obama.

It includes coverage of key recent events, such as the: • 2008 election of Barack Obama • Global recession • war in Iraq and Afghanistan • rise of the internet • transformation of American Society and Culture • changing status of the US in the new millennium Examining the American Moment in a global context, the authors emphasise the interaction between politics, society and culture.
