The renowned Harvard professor Samuel Huntington, in his seminal work The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order, provocatively but insightfully argued that with the end of the Cold War, “civilizations” would replace ideologies as the new fault line in international politics.

His astute analysis proved to be accurate, making his work one of the most significant of the post-Cold War era. Now, in his new book Who Are We?, Huntington shifts his focus from international affairs to internal cultural fault lines, as he examines the impact of other cultures and their values on the USA.

The book Who Are We? highlights the need to affirm the core values that contribute to making the citizens of the USA Americans. What is at stake is nothing less than their national identity. Once again, Samuel Huntington has written an important work that will undoubtedly provoke lively debates and shape the discussion about who Americans are.

A book that has been translated in many countries around the globe, while achieving great success in Europe, contributing significantly to the reflection on what America is today.
