Who are we? Calls of American national identity: Samuel Huntington

The new book of Samuel Huntington is devoted to the analysis of the problem for modern public consciousness – the definition of identity. The priority of nationwide self -awareness is especially important for the country, which is commonly called the “melting crucible of the peoples” – the United States of America. However, today in the United States, disintegration processes are gaining power, which call the fact the fact of the further existence of the phenomenon of American identity. America, as Professor Huntington convincingly proves, is on a fracture – and because the pendulum will ultimately sway in the end, the future of not only the United States, but also the entire world system as a whole, depends.
