In this scathing critique of the reactionary values dominating contemporary America, Milan Zafirovski exposes the ‘societal curse’ that inflicts this so-called promised land today. Based on a sociological as well as historical analysis, he shows how the triangle of capitalist dictatorship, fundamentalist theocracy and exclusionary democracy perpetually creates the ‘New Dark Ages’ that defines today’s lived reality in North America. This much-needed intervention holds the mirror to a land whose perverted slave-and-master economy leaves no refuge or escape to those lured by the idea of freedom and happiness. Brutally honest and uncompromising, ‘Curse in the “Promised Land”?’ is a must-read for everyone willing to unmask the destructive conservative ideology that drives America.
