Reseña del libro "The Untold Story of Western Civilization Vol. 5: Pax Americana (en Inglés)"
The purpose of our story is to understand the roots of our subconscious programming regarding gender, race, class, religion, and nationality. These are the qualities by which we identify ourselves and construct our lives. And yet, our sentimental attachments to these constructs do not allow us to think for the welfare of our species. We cannot fathom how to think or act for the benefit of the whole of humanity even though our crisis is now global in scope. Because the survival of the entire human race and the life support systems of the planet are at stake, it now becomes vital to understand what constitutes our fundamental humanity independent of such descriptors. Regardless of our gender, race, class, nation or religious divisions, we need to know what we share in common as human beings and where we stand now in our evolutionary march toward human perfection.In Volume I of The Untold Story of Western Civilization, we began our journey with a look at the age of the matriarchy during which time, the clan mothers led us out of animality and played the primary role in defining early human society.In Volume II of our history, we looked at the period that historians call Ancient History in which. Warrior Kings established city-state empires out of which arose the the western religions of Zoroastrianism, Judaism and Christianity. In Volume III, we move out of the Middle East into Europe during the time historians call the Middle Ages when the Intellectual Priests ruled European society. It discusses the lifestyles of the Celtic, Germanic, and Slavic tribes of Europe and looks at the process by which the Church came to dominate their lives. In Volume IV we discuss the fall of the Church and the ascent to power of the merchant-capitalist class during the Enlightenment period. The volume explores the capitalists’ economic colonization of the world and looks at the rise of the United States of America from its revolution to the end of World War II. In Volume V we examine the expansion of the United States into the global empire of a capitalist-dominated world. We take a close look at the financial mechanisms the US capitalists invented to do this and their use of the warrior and intellectual elites to impose their strategy of world dominance. We look at the impact their behavior has had on the people of the US and the world.
