David Vine on his new global history The United States of War - a podcast by Leonard Lopate at Large on WBAI Radio in New York

(12/11/20) The United States has been in a constant state of war since 2001. However, this is not quite as significant when you consider that the United States has been at war or invaded other countries almost every year since our founding in 1776. In his latest book, The United States of War: A Global History of America's Endless Conflicts, from Columbus to the Islamic State, professor of political anthropology at American University David Vine traces this pattern of bloody conflict from Columbus’s 1494 arrival in Guantanamo Bay through the 250-year international expansion of the US empire. Join us for a look at our nation’s many wars, in this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large on WBAI.
