I Am Uncle Sam Hardcover

The second half of the twentieth century saw the United States endure a series of paradigm changes on the cultural, political, and social level. Spread out over the span of some fifty years, the population gradually acclimated to those paradigm shifts, but in this alternate timeline, that is not the case. A dramatic change in demographics, overstepping of federal power, and polarization of ideologies all occur within the span of a single decade, giving rise to religious zealotry, ethnic tribalism, extreme views on authority, and more. I Am Uncle Sam explores the woes and drives of American Nationalism from the perspectives of four disenfranchised young men whose lives become tied to the events of a Second American Civil War; a story that demonstrates how love for homeland becomes hatred for all which threatens it.

Analyzing the Mulroney-Chr?tien era's impact on Canadian governance through globalization from without and neoconservatism from within, Clarkson brings together a comprehensive understanding of the current Canadian political climate.

Based on a rich array of sources that capture the voices of both political leaders and ordinary Americans, Uncle Sam Wants You offers a vivid and provocative new interpretation of American political history, revealing how the tensions of mass mobilization during World War I led to a significant increase in power for the federal government. Christopher Capozzola shows how, when the war began, Americans at first mobilized society by stressing duty, obligation, and responsibility over rights and freedoms. But the heated temper of war quickly unleashed coercion on an unprecedented scale, making wartime America the scene of some of the nation's most serious political violence, including notorious episodes of outright mob violence. To solve this problem, Americans turned over increasing amounts of power to the federal government. In the end, whether they were some of the four million men drafted under the Selective Service Act or the tens of millions of home-front volunteers, Americans of the World War I era created a new American state, and new ways of being American citizens.
