Synopsis
Fills a gap in the literature by throwing the spotlight on the institutions which are the conveyor belts for the transmission of American values. The collected essays in this volume both explain these institutions and illustrate the particular values which they embody, such as health, agriculture, economic and social well-being, American labor, truth, and diplomacy, among others. They in turn provide the substance of values projected abroad.
