Rise and Fall of the American Empire - Paperback

by Richard Bishirjian (Author)

Rise and Fall of the American Empire examines the growth of the United States into an American Empire and the causes of its inevitable death. The suggestion that the American democratic republic is now an American Empire contains an observation and a judgment. What is it about democratic regimes that leads them to self-destruction, to suicide? How does this condition come about, and what are the likely consequences? Acclaimed political realist Dr. Richard Bishirjian's historical analysis walks us from a time when Americans consented to be governed in a limited Republic to the present day when Americans are ruled by an administrative state composed of unelected experts.
