商品簡介
Leftist journalist and historian Street conducts a broad critique of Barack Obama's presidency through May of 2010. Six chapters address Obama's corporate- and Wall Street-friendly policies; Obama's expansion of militarism in the Middle East and Southern Asia; the corporate-friendly "health reform," the racial and other identity-politicized meanings of the Obama presidency, Obama's continuation of repressive Bush administration "war on terror" practices and policies, and the ways in which these directions should have been predictable to the left and how to handle the disillusion that has now set in among many on the left and in the population at large.
