This book interrogates the nature of anti-Americanism today and over the last century. It asks several questions: How do we define the phenomenon from different perspectives; political, social, and cultural? What have been the common global features of anti-Americanism and its local variants? What are the historical sources and turning points of anti-Americanism in Europe and elsewhere? What are its links with anti-Semitic sentiment? Has anti-Americanism been beneficial or self-destructive to its believers ? Finally, how has the United States responded and why? The authors are scholars of regions and countries and specialists in foreign images of the United States and the West. They also represent a wide variety of disciplines and come from a multitude of countries. The book tackles the potential political consequences of anti-Americanism in Eastern and Central Europe, the region that has been perceived as strongly pro-American.
