Political scientist Brendon O'Connor at the United States Studies Centre in Australia suggests that "anti-Americanism" cannot be isolated as a consistent phenomenon, since the term originated as a rough composite of stereotypes, prejudices, and criticisms which evolved into more politically-based criticisms.

In this regard, the ter ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
