What is American Exceptionalism? A shining city on a hill or down in the valley? In episode #15 of @thepublicdiplomat we discuss the concept of American exceptionalism. What started out as an early criticism of the United States by socialists in the 1930s was reframed as American patriotism and pride by President Ronald Reagan.  The Public Diplomat provides information and insights on geopolitics, international politics, international relations, and foreign affairs.  We provide in-depth, analytical looks at international politics and current events. From explaining the basics of geopolitics to breaking down complex treaties and agreements, our channel has everything you need to stay up-to-date on global affairs. When it comes to in-depth analysis and conversation, it is difficult to find an unbiased source that is not influenced by government or corporate interests, this is exactly the reason why The Public Diplomat was created. From foreign elections, regional conflicts, global tensions, and diplomatic engagement, we aim to cover it all. We invite experts, journalists, academics, and people in the know from all sides of the conversation as we aim to provide meaningful discussion of key happenings all around the world.   PLESASE SUBSCRIBE/LIKE/SHARE  https://linktr.ee/guygolan
