    Uniform Title: Après l'empire 〈dt.〉
    Content: Die USA stehen vor massiven Problemen. Die markigen Worte des Präsidenten um die Verbreitung der Demokratie und die Bekämpfung der "Achse des Bösen" täuschen nur noch Stärke vor. Die dramatische Wirklichkeit, so Emmanuel Todd: Die Welt braucht die frühere Supermacht längst nicht mehr in dem Maße, in dem Amerika heute von der restlichen Welt abhängig ist. Die Zeit der imperialen Herrschaft Amerikas ist vorbei. Die Welt ist zu groß, zu vielgestaltig, zu dynamisch, sie nimmt die Vorherrschaft einer einzigen Macht nicht mehr hin. Und die USA haben nicht mehr das Ziel, die Demokratie zu verbreiten, obwohl Präsident George W. Bush nicht müde wird, ebendies zu behaupten. In Wirklichkeit geht es darum, die politische Kontrolle über die weltweiten Ressourcen zu sichern. Denn die USA sind mittlerweile vom "Rest der Welt" viel abhängiger als umgekehrt. Amerika versucht seinen Niedergang zu kaschieren durch einen theatralischen militärischen Aktionismus, der sich gegen relativ unbedeutende Staaten richtet. Der Kampf gegen den Terrorismus, gegen den Irak und die "Achse des Bösen" ist nur ein Vorwand. Die wichtigsten strategischen Akteure sind heute Europa und Russland, Japan und China. Amerika hat nicht mehr die Kraft, sie zu kontrollieren, und wird noch den letzten verbliebenen Teil seiner Weltherrschaft verlieren. In Zukunft wird Amerika eine Macht neben anderen sein.

    Homespun gospel : the triumph of sentimentality in contemporary American evangelicalism (2014)
    Oxford [u.a.] : Oxford Univ. Press
    Details
    UID:
    gbv_744168333
    Format: X, 196 S.
    ISBN: 9780199988983
    Content: God, as depicted in popular evangelical literature, is loving and friendly, described in heartfelt, often saccharine prose evocative of nostalgia, comfortable domesticity, and familial love. This emotional appeal is a widely-adopted strategy of the writers most popular among American evangelicals, including such high-profile pastors as Max Lucado, Rick Warren, and Joel Osteen. Todd M. Brenneman offers an in-depth examination of this previously unexplored aspect of American evangelical identity: sentimentality, which aims to produce an emotional response by appealing to readers` notions of familial relationships, superimposed on their relationship with God. Brenneman argues that evangelicals use sentimentality to establish authority in the public sphere-authority that is, by its emotional nature, unassailable by rational investigation. Evangelicals also deploy sentimentality to try to bring about change in society, though, as Brenneman shows, the sentimental focus on individual emotion and experience can undermine the evangelical agenda. Sentimentality not only allows evangelicals to sidestep intellectual questioning, but sets the stage for doctrinal change as well as weakening the evangelical vision of transforming society into the kingdom of God.
