Nancy Snow's provocative book tackles the government's manipulation of the term anti-American and other propaganda techniques, connecting them to the attempts of U.S. administrations and media past and present to project a better U.S image rather than address the issues behind why the country's image is so poor. If America cares what others think, Snow argues, it needs to get over itself as the number-one country. The government needs to spend less time diverting public attention and more time enlisting citizens to help improve foreign relations. And the public needs to exercise its democratic right to dissent, rather than letting the government or the media halt foreign policy debates with labels, propaganda, and arrogant rhetoric.Snow, Nancy is the author of 'Arrogance of American Power What U.s. Leaders Are Doing Wrong And Why It's Our Duty to Dissent', published 2006 under ISBN 9780742553743 and ISBN 0742553744.
