Adas explores the relationship between millenarianism and violent protest by focusing on five case studies representing a wide range of social, political, and economic systems. Arranged topically to emphasize comparative patterns, the study analyzes causes, leaders, organisation, failure, and the impact on the individual society.
Long before the U.S. became a major force in global affairs, U.S. expansionists assumed a mandate to "civilize" non-Western peoples by demanding submission to American technological prowess and design. Adas pursues the history of this mission through America's foreign relations over nearly four centuries.
