Rezensionen
'Extremely relevant for understanding current world politics and the role of the American state in it ... Hollywood films have such a profound impact on viewers all over the world, influencing and sometimes producing popular attitudes. Yet international relations scholars rarely examine the role of filmic images in the construction of our world today. This work fills the gap with nuanced, brilliant insights.' -L. H. M. Ling, New School University 'One of the most perceptive and important works on the immediate post-September 11 period - tracking broad, divergent American attitudes and values, particularly as regards U.S. relations with a wider world.' - John Howard, Kings College London 'Cynthia Weber offers a commanding and insightful analysis of how Hollywoodshapes America's consciousness, foreign policy and perception of itself. A brilliantbook, brilliantly put together.'- Ziauddin Sardar, co-author, Why Do People Hate America?
