このコンテンツについて

"A world-class intellectual. . . . [Colin Woodard’s] research can help Americans rediscover their common identity in spite of all the attempts to divide them." —Garry Kasparov

"A powerful paradigm for understanding the defining hot button issues of contemporary America and the action we can take to bridge our cultural divisions and save the republic." —The Next Big Idea Club

“A lucid exercise in political geography with tremendous—and disturbing—explanatory power.” —Kirkus Reviews

The bestselling author of American Nations reveals how centuries-old regional differences have brought American democracy to the brink of collapse and presents a powerful story that can bridge our cultural divisions and save the republic


Our democracy has been purposefully dismantled, first in the states and now at the federal level. With groundbreaking original data and historical insights, Nations Apart is an essential guide to understanding why Americans are so divided on many hot button issues, creating geographic fissures that have been exploited by authoritarians. Colin Woodard shows how colonial era settlement patterns and the cultural geography they left behind are at the root of our political polarization, economic inequality, public health crises, and democratic collapse.

Drawing on quantitative research from Woodard’s university-based think tank project, Nations Apart exposes the true ideological and cultural divides behind today’s struggles over:

* Gun control
* Immigration
* Health policy
* Abortion
* Climate Change
* History
* Authoritarianism and Democracy

But there is a road map to right the country: a carefully researched, vigorously tested common story for the country built on the mission set forth for us in the document that first bound our regions together, the Declaration of Independence. Combining compelling storytelling with scholarly vigor, Nations Apart offers a blueprint for bridging the rifts that divide us and ensuring the American dream of democratic self-government will reach its 300th birthday.

批評家のレビュー

Advance Praise for Nations Apart:

"A powerful paradigm for understanding the defining hot button issues of contemporary America and the action we can take to bridge our cultural divisions and save the republic."
—The Next Big Idea Club

“A world-class intellectual. . . . [Colin Woodard’s] research can help Americans rediscover their common identity in spite of all the attempts to divide them.”
—Garry Kasparov

“A lucid exercise in political geography with tremendous—and disturbing—explanatory power.”
Kirkus Reviews

"An in-depth, nuanced look at the regional differences that influence values and belief systems within large geographical swaths of the U.S. . . . [Woodard's] in-depth but accessible arguments bring in elements of history, religion, philosophy, economics, international comparisons, and predictions for the future, all fully supported by data. . . . Considerable food for thought."
Booklist (STARRED review)

"Where American Nations was a map of our historical DNA, Nations Apart promises to be a diagnosis of our present — and maybe a warning for the future."
—Richard Stride, The Chronicle

Praise for Union:

Named a Book of the Year by the Christian Science Monitor

"In Woodard’s hands, [history] leaps to life. He shows just how powerful a form popular nonfiction can be in the hands of a disciplined writer who won’t tolerate generality or abstraction. . . . The writing is relentlessly accessible. . . . This is that rare history that tells what influential thinkers failed to think, what famous writers left unwritten."
—Jill Leovy, The American Scholar


Praise for American Character:

Chautauqua Book Prize finalist • Winner of the Maine Literary Award for Non-fiction

"[Woodard] is a terrific writer, and his range is impressive."
—David Oshinsky, Washington Post

Praise for American Nations:

A Wall Street Journal bestseller • A New Republic Best Book of the Year • The Globalist Top Books of the Year • Winner of the Maine Literary Award for Non-fiction

“Fascinating . . . Engrossing . . . a smart read that feels particularly timely now, when so many would claim a mythically unified ‘founding Fathers’ as their political ancestors.”
—The Boston Globe
