Hating America: A History is a book by Barry Rubin and Judith Colp.
Reviewing the book for The Washington Times, Daniel Mandel, associate director of the Middle East Forum and a fellow in history at Melbourne University writes:
- "What America shares with an earlier Britain is that insufferable sense of mission, the conviction that it is a force for good in world affairs. Any force for change, good or bad, presents a challenge to an existing order, and resentment comes with it. That would be enough to raise hackles. But America, more so than even Britain, represents a special type of challenge to the world. That challenge has been recognized, feared, resented and finally hated. ... The triumph of American economic expansion and military power [and] the success of what is now the world's sole superpower has caused anti-American resentment to become a perverse ideal." [1]
