Keywords:

Through a chronological and thematical approach, this book examines the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 and the effect on what President George W. Bush recognized as the 9/11 Generation.

By providing cultural and generational context to 9/11 and its impact on the U.S., this book is the first study to ensure that the voices of this young generation are put at the forefront of analysis. Creating and Failing the 9/11 Generation answers “what happened” and “why” but, more importantly, it reveals the importance of broader themes and ideas such as foreign policy, security, patriotism, the U.S. military, and American democracy. The final chapter, 9/11 and the World, places the events in America on a global scale and demonstrates how 9/11 has remained, and will remain, significant to understanding how different places and cultures interact with each other in the modern world.

Creating and Failing the 9/11 Generation is useful for all students who study U.S. foreign relations, terrorism, warfare, memory studies, and the history of modern America.

Recenzijas

"Matt Warshauers conceptual insight, his deep research, and his judicious narrative will be invaluable to the reading public, to students in formal study, and to his fellow academics. His grasp of the history of the period is self-evident; what strikes me, and I suspect may strike you as well, is the originality of his argument in terms of the psychological development of a whole generation of Americans. In this I was reminded of Robert Coless landmark work on the psychological impact of the civil-rights struggle on those who undertook the nonviolent dismantling of Jim Crow. I think Matts work may well rank in that very rarified company.

Jon Meacham, Pulitzer Prize Winner

"Through a wealth of research, consideration, and study, Warshauer, professor of history at Central Connecticut State University, delivers an in-depth investigation of the causes, effects, and viewpoints of the terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington. A deeply researched, well-considered dive into the lasting effects of 9/11 and the global war on terror."
