Arthur Schlesinger Jr asks in this book What does it mean to be an American?. The classic image of the republic is that of the melting pot where differences of race, wealth, religion and nationality are submerged in democracy. But now there is a new orthodoxy: America as a collection of self-interest groups, celebrating difference and abandoning the idea of assimilation. Similar books: The Imperial Presidency by Arthur M.
