Wie die amerikanische Demokratie zum Krisenfall wurde Manfred Berg, einer der besten Kenner der USA, erzählt die lange Geschichte einer fortschreitenden Spaltung, die das Land an den Rand eines neuen Bürgerkriegs geführt hat. Sein glänzend geschriebenes Buch bietet eine umfassende Darstellung und Analyse der politischen, wirtschaftlichen, sozialen und kulturellen Konflikte, die Donald Trumps Aufstieg ermöglicht haben, aber nicht verschwinden werden, wenn er von der politischen Bühne abtritt. In den 1950er Jahren galten die USA als Vorbild einer stabilen Demokratie, in der ein breiter Konsens über die gesellschaftliche und politische Ordnung herrschte. In den 1960er Jahren jedoch zerbrach dieser Konsens in den Auseinandersetzungen über den Vietnamkrieg, den Rassenkonflikt und die Kulturrevolution der Radical Sixties. In den folgenden Jahrzehnten veränderten Globalisierung, Einwanderung, Wertewandel und Medienrevolution die amerikanische Gesellschaft dramatisch, führten aber gleichzeitig zu unerbittlichen Kulturkämpfen und einem lange unterschätzten Polarisierungs- und Radikalisierungsschub, der insbesondere das konservative Milieu erfasste. Heute stehen sich rote und blaue Staaten, Republikaner und Demokraten, Konservative und Liberale als unversöhnliche Feinde gegenüber. Die amerikanische Demokratie ist zum Krisenfall geworden. Wer die Krise der amerikanischen Demokratie und ihre jüngere Geschichte verstehen will, dem bietet dies Buch umfassende historische Orientierung.
