dbo:abstract
  • American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America ist ein Sachbuch von Autor Colin Woodard aus dem Jahr 2011. Es beschreibt die Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika als ein Land, bestehend aus zehn Nationen. Die elfte Nation, die Colin Woodard in dem Buch aufführt, ist die First Nation, die von der indigenen Bevölkerung Kanadas gegründet wurde. Alle Nationen haben eine eigene Kultur, die von den ersten Siedlern in jenem Gebiet geprägt wurde. Obwohl die ersten der US-amerikanischen Nationen bereits Anfang des 17. Jahrhunderts entstanden, leitet der Autor aktuelles politisches Verhalten der Bevölkerungen in den beschriebenen Gebieten von den damals entstandenen Nationen und ihrer (politischen) Kultur ab. Die elf Nationen sind: El Norte, Deep South, Tidewater, Greater Appalachia, Midlands, Far West, Left Coast, New Netherland, New France, Yankeedom und First Nation. (de)
  • American Nations: A History of the Eleven Rival Regional Cultures of North America is an American non-fiction book written by Colin Woodard and published in 2011. Woodard proposes a framework for examining American history and current events based on a view of the country as a federation of eleven nations, each defined by a shared culture established by each nation's founding population. Noting that the original thirteen colonies were established at different times and by different groups with different goals and values, Woodard shows how these colonies both cooperated and competed from their founding. The principles held dear by each colony often conflicted with those of other colonies, and those conflicting agendas shaped the founding and growth of the United States. As the country expanded, the populace that moved into the new territory brought with it the culture of the society from which they came, resulting in nations – a group that shares a common culture and origin – divorced from legal state and international boundaries. American Nations argues that the contrasts between regional cultures, as opposed to state borders, provide a more useful and accurate explanation of events and movements. Woodard has written two sequels: American Character: A History of the Epic Struggle Between Individual Liberty and the Common Good (Viking, 2016) and Union: The Struggle to Forge the Story of United States Nationhood (Viking, 2020). He has referred to them as an "informal American Nations trilogy." (en)
