  • A brilliant analysis of the distinctive nature of American democracy and of the criticisms that have been leveled at it.


  • The framing of the analysis around the theme of anti-Americanism is very topical and would appeal to a potentially wider audience.


  • America and its Critics offers a distinctive interpretation of American democracy as method rather than model, and an original argument about the nature of American political exceptionalism.


  • This book won the European Amalfi Prize for the Social Sciences in 2006 - the most prestigious international prize for outstanding books in the social sciences.


  • Sergio Fabbrini knows the American political system extremely well, and teaches regularly at UC Berkeley.
