Product Description
From the celebrated magazine of international writing, twelve sharp global perspectives on a changing United States, with an introduction by the Dial's editor in chief, Madeleine Schwartz
The 2024 U.S. presidential election reverberated internationally, a
global event whose outcome has already reshaped trade, migration,
security, and rising authoritarianism across the world. Inside the United
States, we are swamped by the news cycle; but how does the wider world
see and interpret what is happening under Trump?
from around the world probe their home countries' complex relationship
with the United States--and how this has swerved under the new administration. A diverse, international cast of writers examines how Turkey's
recent history helps us understand America's slide into autocracy, how
Argentina's century-long obsession with the dollar has changed under
Trump, anti-American tourism sentiment in Italy, and what right-wing
Americans get wrong about South Africa. Essays in the collection also
look at how Taiwan is navigating the uncertainty of Trump's response in
the event of a Chinese invasion and the newly fraught view of the U.S.
from Canada. Featuring pieces commissioned by The Dial, the award-winning
magazine, How We See It shifts and expands our frame of reference,
our self-awareness, and our understanding of how much our world has
changed since the election of 2024.
