Homo Americanus
A polyglot Croatian scholar, Tomislav Sunic, provides in his newest book, Homo Americanus: Child of the Postmodern Age, reasons that a good European should distrust the US. These reasons are significantly different from those that one might encounter in the Euro-American leftist and mainstream press, e.g., that President Bush is a Christian maniac who is unleashing an anti-Muslim crusade against a Middle Eastern people or that Americans have taken an inexcusably long time to introduce homosexual marriage or, most ominously, that we treat illegals from across our Southern border with xenophobic brutality. Sunic gives the proper reasons that Europeans should despise us, namely, because we are hostile to European national identities, because we have contributed to bringing to Central Europe Frankfurt School brain-laundering and last but not least, because we try to substitute for concrete historical traditions such notions as propositional nationhood and the ideology of human rights. In his elaboration of these grievances Sunic is entirely on target, and the fact that he has had to publish his manuscript (as far as I can determine) with his own funds speaks volumes for the difficulty of publicizing non-orthodox views on certain subjects.
I also think that Sunic strikes the proper balance, and indeed far better than most of the European New Right, by stressing both the newness and antiquity of the American policies and attitudes under discussion. Instead of dumping on the Protestant, moralistic culture out of which America grew as a nation, Sunic believes that culture had its strengths before it became secularized and corrupted. It is what American religious culture became by the beginning of the last century which concerns him, as does the obvious contradiction between a territorially defined Europe of nations and a righteous global empire seeking to implement its conception of rights everywhere.
Contrary to the postwar conservative illusion that the US, unlike revolutionary France, embraced historic rights while rejecting the “rights of man,” Sunic shows Americans being as obsessed with universal rights as they are with consumer products. It is the combination of consumption and rights talk which has produced “homo americanus,” a constantly reproduced American prototype that by now, according to Sunic, is as easily identified as “homo sovieticus.” During the Cold War, Sunic and others living in the communist bloc began to think of the products of party indoctrination as having a recognizable character and appearance. It was postmodern and post-bourgeois, but for all of its ritualized revolutionary discourse this human type was profoundly conformist. Its presence, according to some critics, precluded the possibility of restoring human character as it had existed before, in pre-Marxist societies: as a result of longtime Communist control, one had to deal with flat, standardized personalities that might have been the worst byproduct of “scientific socialism.”
Sunic, who received his doctorate at University of California, Santa Barbara, and then taught at Juniata College in Pennsylvania before returning to Europe, believes that Americans fall into a similar pattern. As the creations of a self-proclaimed political experiment, whose subjects generally frown on the European past, Americans, and especially the younger generation, show a depressing sameness. But they mask this defect as individual self-discovery. They confuse the dreary recitation of politically correct gibberish with sensitivity that they think they have arrived at through their own value-clarification. A combination of materialism, superficiality and misplaced moral concern is the American gestalt that Sunic keeps coming back to. And he seems bothered by the fact that Europeans have begun to imitate this gestalt even while bewailing American influence. A foreword by Kevin MacDonald, known for his controversial arguments about the destructiveness of the Jewish impact on gentile society and culture, may unfairly bring Sunic flak. His own critique stays clear of anti-Jewish tirades and of the tasteless flattery of American Jews heard among some Christian Philosemites. Sunic properly focuses on why Europeans should deplore American conversionary politics, whose effects he carefully outlines. And with due respect to MacDonald, whose work I continue to find stimulating, he zeros in on the Protestant deformation, which may be far more important as an explanation for what Sunic criticizes than the Jewish war against gentile national identities. There is, by the way, one point raised in the introduction, and then in the text itself, which commands particular attention. In both places the observation is made that the politics of guilt may be imperialistic righteousness that the moral fanatic turns against himself, when he is not venting it on others. The point is well taken, and besides, it sounds like something the Frankfurt School and its American imitators might say about bourgeois Christians.

thank you mr Gottfried for bringing what may be a fine work to my attention...now the question becomes, where to procure this work?
this is too classic a description not to bring out ...
“They confuse the dreary recitation of politically correct gibberish with sensitivity that they think they have arrived at through their own value-clarification.”

As I’ve said before, conservatives must realize that the American war in the middle east is an attempt to impose modernism on a traditional, religious culture which just wants to live according the way its traditions and religion have always guided it to live. Why should we support that?
It’s been terribly disillusioning to listen to the mainstream conservative spokesmen - I thought they were conservative, anyway - talk about how we need to break a traditional, religious culture with the poison of modernity so that we may put our boot on its neck. And that *is* what they’re saying, no doubt. Have you listened to Sean Hannity lately? Speaking about what should be done to change the middle east, he sounds like a cross between Robespierre and Betty Friedan.
American conservatism is not conservatism. It is what 100 years ago would have been considered liberalism, combined with manic drive for empire, cultural and otherwise.
I think it was Bill Lind who observed that in 1913, America represented the face of the international left. By 1919 it represented the face of the international right. And it was not really America that had changed, but the world (Europe, really) that had shifted around America - so much had that cataclysmic war blasted the world off its foundations.
Just so. But let us not ever forget that America is only rightist subjectively compared with the ruins of Europe - it is and never has been anything but leftist objectively

If fear that Mr. Sunic is guilty of what some New Englanders are guilty: Reading USA history, culture, and circumstances as New England’s writ large. Eric Hoffer said JFK had never been west of the Mississippi River. This is a mistaken liable. JFK was never west of the HUDSON River. And I wonder if Mr. Sunic, like Susan Sontag, has never been west of 5th Ave., NYC.
What he says about America just ain’t so down here in Dixie. If he’s right about the rest of the country, then we in Dixie ain’t no “homo americus”. Lets count off the points:
[1] “because we [Yankees] are hostile to European national identities,
[2] because we [Yankees] have contributed to bringing to Central Europe Frankfurt School brain-laundering
[3] because we [New England Yankees] try to substitute for concrete historical traditions such notions as propositional nationhood and the ideology of human rights.
[4 because the USA is] “a righteous global empire seeking to implement its conception of rights everywhere
[5. because] t is the combination of [Yankee] consumption and [New England] rights talk which has produced “homo americanus”
[6. because] it [i.e. Yankeedom] became secularized and corrupted.”
Well, NONE of this is true here in the Piedmont and Tidewater Carolinas. Indeed we in Dixie were the first to feel the effects of a “righteous global empire”. Mr. Sunic and Mr. Gottfried need to do two things:
1. Read Richard Gamble’s _War For Righteousness_ to understand the real causes of the present mess
2. Come down here, be our guests, have some Lexington BBQ, sweet tea, cornbread, Moon Pies, and live here a while before attempting to generalize about “America”
By the way, it is true that Gringos don’t know much about Europe, and its is a matter of published record (e.g. Goldhagen), that Americans think Germans one and all to be cold blooded killers Having lived so time in Mitteleuropa, I found that the folk there have even weirder ideas about Gringoland. In the past 7 years in particular I’ve had to disabuse Europeans of the idea that we’re all a cowboy culture (forget that this genre’s been dead for 30 years). Mr. Sunic will have to do a lot to persuade me he’s not just as weird. Mr. Gottfried should know better.

This sounds like a very interesting work, Mr. Gottfried. The emergence of the homo americanus whom Mr. Sunic describes was prophesied by de Toqueville and has been commented on by other European observers such as Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn. The most remarkable and perhaps most depressing aspect of this conformist consumerist is that he was created without a reign of terror and a totalitarian political party. Give the genetics freaks a little more time to work their dark magic, and homo americanus will simply be decanted and mass produced as in Huxley’s Brave New World.

While Southrons such as either you or I are not
molded in the image of “homo americanus”, sure you can
see that the majority of our fellow Southrons are.
That is, Reconstruction has succeeded in transforming
the various people of the South into Yankees all too
well.
As for the role of “Christian Progressives” in shaping
the United States, in particular the South, how can
the great plurality of Southrons, Baptists, be
considered “progressive”? Southern Baptists support
the “progressive” United States today IN SPITE of their
non-progressive faith. That is because they are not
informed by their faith, but by secularism. Southern
Baptists (among others) are as theologically dead as
their fellow travellers, the [Jewish] secular Zionists.

If hypocrisy is the compliment vice pays to virtue (allow me to mix my metaphors thoroughly) for a European to complain about secularization in the US is damning with faint praise.
Yet we are truly damned. Until something like last weeks storms or Katrina overflows them.

Pace one of my respondents, Sunic never claims that
Americans are more thoroughly secularized than
Europeans. He argues that secularized Protestantism
has contributed to both the missionary moralizing and
phony individualism which he identifies with homo
americanus. That is a different view from
the clearly untrue one that he never states, that
(Western) Europeans are less secular than Americans.
If I’m not mistaken, Southern whites voted
overwhwelmingly for such global democratic enthusiasts
as Woodrow Wilson and Dubya. The attempt to blame
neoconservative dogmas entirely on Yankees simply
won’t wash. Southerners have never hesitated to
support wars aimed at spreading democracy.

@Paul Gottfried
Thanky you, Mr Gottfried, my point exactly. It is the “Southern White”, uninfluenced by Yankee Puritanicalism that votes for such people as GW Bush. Not because of their non-progressive Baptist creed, but in spite of it. What is the cause of it all then? Well, THERE is where the Yankee influence is to blame - due to their overwhelmingly being informed by secularism. Not that the Southern Whites are “secular”, but their opinions of the world are formed by secular society, other than the parts where Our Lord Jesus tells us to, and a paraphrase here, “go out and make disciples of all nations”.
Just like with the “commerce clause” and the “general welfare clause” of the US Constitution (a document that should have been written in Latin, by the way), they find a loop hole that allows them to abuse the system.

I have not read Mr. Sunic so probably I am talking out
of my hat, but I would like to know if his concern for
national identities comes too close to nationalism.
Unfortunately the end of communism brought back a lot of
nationalist sentiment which did not have the chance to
be civilized. The fact that Mr. Sunic is a Croat makes
me uneasy, probably unfairly, since it was in Croatia
that was found very nasty mixture of nationalism and
Catholicism, mainly the Ustache.
Probably I am being paranoid, but I would like to know
that Mr. Sunic is not a Croatian nationalist before I
trust in what he says.

1. I am not responsible for the italics.
2. Southerners did NOT vote FOR the New England Program. Wilson and Bush II did not make public their real foreign polcy aims until after they were elected; ditto the social programs of the Arch-Keynesian Nixon and Carter. That the South voted so was the result of Reconstruction and Southern Redemption, and the corresponding hatred by both Southern Populists and Bourbon Democrats of Radical Republicanism.
Southerners of British origin voted AGAINST Federalists-Whigs-Republicans from 1800 through 1861 and vote FOR Jeffersonianism (our real tradition, not New England’s); they voted AGAINST Republicans from 1871-1960, even in 1928, and AGAINST DimmykratS since 1960. We voted FOR Jefferson, Jackson, Polk, Cleveland, Bryan, Davis, Goldwater, and Wallace. WE voted AGAINST Lincoln, McKinley, T. Roosevelt, Taft, McGovern, Clinton, etc.
Get the history right. Or has Gottfried himself never been west of the figurative Hudson River?

Moreover:
My father told me what his father told him, who hailed from Breathitt County in eastern KY. In April 1917 every male of age in that county needed no draft; they all volunteered, led by my Great Uncle “Captain” Jack; even my Great Uncle Selden, at 16, went as a mess boy. All of them were of Borderer Backcountry ethnos. They were eager to serve not because they hated the “Hun”, nor to hang the Kaiser, nor to oppose putative Prussian militarism (forget about the British and French empires of coolies), nor because of lies of the British press about supposed German crimes in Belgium, nor because of the Lusitania (which was carrying munitions sold by a supposed neutral country, and the danger of sailing under a British flags was made known by the German Embassy), nor because of the lies of the Creel Bureau about the crimes of Goethe and Nietzsche, nor to “make the world safe for democracy”, nor for “the war for righteousness”, nor for the “war to end all wars”, and CERTAINLY not for Anglophila and to save the House of Morgan (the real reasons for American intervention). We Borderer Backcountry folk fought simply because we like to fight. My father called in “Mountain Macho”. Indeed, we Borderers Backcountrymen have done most of the fighting and dying in Gringoland’s New England inspired wars, from King Williams War on the frontier to Iraq; all the while, New Englanders have sent THEIR sons to Ivy League universities. To be fair, Rev. Hagee’s people are sending their sons to places like Bob Jones. By the way, the Dispensationalist frenzy is as New Englanderish as it comes.
That the real engine that drives wars—the real reason that men will march into the face of cannon and machine gun—is not propaganda or “war aims”, but because men like to fight (and women like men who fight for them) is one of Martin van Creveld’s most insightful observations.
Learn something about American ethnic groups other than those in the East Coast Strip (from the lower DC suburbs to Salem, MA, home of the witch hunts). Other ethnics are around other than East Anglia Puritans, Midland Quakers, and NY Dutch, however much these have tried to make America’s history theirs writ large.

Paul Gottfried has commended books which I, followings his counsel, have been the beneficiary. Brian Mitchell’s _Eight Ways to Run the Country_ is the most recent.
To return a favor, I commend to him David Hackett Fischer’s _Albion’s Seed_, as I have the work of Richard Gamble. Please, folks, Fischer’s book is absolutely essential reading for anyone who wishes to understand America.

I think that many of you focus too much on the “americanus” part. What Sunic means is that “homo americanus” is a new type of man who’s ORIGIN is in America.
Almost everything that is mentioned as being typical characteristics of the homo americanus can easily be recognized here in Europe too. The “americanus” is thus a misnomer. I’m not very well versed in Latin, but I suggest the name be changed to “homo zombicus televisionicus”, the tv zombie man.
I can for sure confirm that this new breed of man can easily be spotted here in Sweden as well. All you have to do to find one is simply open your eyes.
If Mr Gottfried asks his friend Mr Sunic what language he speaks, I’m pretty sure that the answer will NOT be Serbo-Croatian. The language in Croatia is Croatian. That other term is a dead attempt by communist politicians to amagalmate Croatians into the Serb nation.
Adriana, Croatian nationalists exist primarily in the anticatholic and antichristian leftist Western press. We have more ugly nationalism here in tranquil Sweden than I have ever encountered in Croatia. The Croatians are very patriotic, which by clueless and malicious people is translated into nationalism.
The difference between nationalism and patriotism is that nationalists first and foremost need to make their country and/or people or race into the “best”, so that they may belittle or ridicule others. It is from this they get their rush.
Patriots love their country and/or people, no matter if they’re the “best” or the “worst”.
One interesting thing to know about Croatia is that it has repeatedly been called “the most Catholic country in the world”. The late John Paul II, who visited Croatia five times said so on several occasions. Also older encyclopedias, swedish ones at least, mention that Croatians are “more Catholic than Italians and Spaniards”.
Probably I am being paranoid, but I would like to know that Adriana is not a nationalist before I trust in what she says.
Well Adiana? How did that sound to you?

For the record, I have read Albion’s Seed and it is
one of my favorite studies in American cultural
history. Nonetheless, it doesn’t exonerate South
Carolinians for supporting the execrable Giuliani,
and it doesn’t excuse the Southern whites who gave
their votes to John Edwards and Bill. Moreover,
at least some of the lunatic ministers who appear in
Gamble’s fine book were Southerners. This blame
game at the expense of New England Protestants
involves overgeneralization about the goodness of
ideal Southerners and demonized Yankees. At this point
, it may pay for former enemies to bury their

I thank Rin for his clarification of Sunic’s views and for offering John Lukac’s very necessary distinction between nationalism and patriotism. We should also remember is distinction between Fascists and Nazis, and between both and Conservatism. Maurras and Drumond were not Fascists; they were extremist conservatives. And “radical”, “ultra” and “extremist” are bad adjectives to have attached to ANY political movement.
And I accept Paul Gottfried’s offer to form a coalition between Southerners no longer fooled by scaliwags and “country slickers” and New Englanders who have come to their senses about the darker parts of their heritage. Among such New Englanders I count my heroes Hawthorne, Melville, and Henry Adams; also in count Bernard Berenson, George Santayana, even Percival Lowell, and by proximity the Brothers James. Sign me up for the coalition, Dr. Gottfried!
By the way, with respect to George Santayana, someone—I can’t remember who—has quipped: “No one reads old George anymore; everybody’s to busy quoting him.”

Adriana, Croatian nationalism started somewhere in 1908 with a jewish fellow named Josip Frank.
It was then reawakened by the 5 year reign of the Ustasha regime of Ante Pavelic, a follower of Frank, during WW2. Most of the top Ustasha brass were btw married to jewish women. One or two were Jews themselves. And one high ranking official (I believe he was the minister of sports) was an american negro from Chicago.
The third time nationalism raised its ugly head in Croatia was when a jewish fellow by the name of Mladen Schwartz organized a neo-nazi party of sorts in the 1990’s. At the most they counted some 120 members.

Here you are praising this article by Mr. Gottfried and on another thread on this website you attack me because I defend the makeup of Europe and the cohesion and integrity of the races that make up Europe. You are a hypocrite.///America is Plato’s cave, a place of lies and full of illusions. Even its “government” which is supposed to be a “republic” is not one at all but a “psuedo-republic”. America is a lie. It is a Masonic Novus Ordo creation that is nonsensical. America is nihilist. I no longer say I am an american. I am a European but not an American.

@Sid Cundiff. This guy takes the cake. On another thread he attacks “race” and “nationalism”. Paul Gottfried refers to “the Jewish war against gentile national identities.” And again, Mr. Gottfried says that “because we (meaning Americans) are hostile to European national identities, because we have contributed to bringing to Central Europe Frankfurt School”. America is the Novus Ordo, an ideological nation that must attack and undermine race/nation/ethnicity and here is Sid Cundiff commenting on the “difference between nationalism and patriotism” and in a sense calling nationalism evil. Higdon and Cundiff here are speaking out both sides of their mouths. Nationalism is nothing more than “belonging” a human sentiment as old as the hills. Nationalism is not evil. To do so is anti-conservative. What these two people are doing is dissimulating.

You most definitely can be “for Europe” and against nationalism.
For example, there is no such thing as the “nation” of Germany - there is a German linguistic identity, but it is quite possible to be a Bavarian and absolutely detest a Prussian, all the while admitting that you both speak a Germanic language.
The nations of Europe are 19th century inventions of Freemasons, and have no historical right to exist, and probably will not exist in some few hundred years from now. The first to go will probably be Belgium; the last will be France.

Mr. Wheeler, I oppose any kind of nationalism and the nation state as an institution. Europe had much more diversity of culture in pre-Westphalian times than in the modern era. American nationalism is aggressive and soul-destroying and has universalist pretensions. It is democratic liberalism unleashed. But the answer to this process is not to idolize some other nation, but to stop idolizing nations at all and to have a realistic view of one’s own. “America the greatest nation in the world?”, the American writer Joseph Sobran once quipped. “Not while Italy’s still around.”

“Nationalism is not evil.” —Wheeler.
Why, it ONLY caused two world wars! To judge from the mess in the Balkans and the Near East, it might just cause a third. Added to nationalism’s dubious credit is the bloodshed in Northern Ireland. By the way, I wonder if Putin is up to more than just trying to own Santa Claus.
In turn, what Richard Sennett calls retribalization (_The Fall of Public Man_) might likely lead to lots of blood shed around Gringoland. Cultural Marxism, with its poesy about “multiculturalism” and “diversity” (concepts it really doesn’t believe in) might be the victim of unintended consequences: neo-nationalism.
I urge Wheeler to read Lukacs on “patriotism” and “nationalism”. I also recommend the work of Carlton Hayes on nationalism. A history friend tells me that other than Hayes, there is to date no good scholarly study of nationalism. Is my friend wrong?

My, My, what a funny world we live in. The two world wars were caused by an anarchist bullet in Saravejo. What did the anarchists hope to achieve, anarchists who are a stepchild of socialism? Anarchism, like its uncle Socialism, like its mother Communism, sought the destruction of the Old Order. This is what Protestantism and Masonry, both instigated by Jews and the Kabbala, hope to achieve. Destroy the Old Order in order to “Fix the world”. Nationalism is a tool, only a tool. You forget Aristotle’s four causes. Nationalism is only a material cause, you forget the formal cause. The material cause is of no moral concern and the fault of Higdon and Cundiff is to elevate the material cause but it is the formal cause that is to blame and Higdon/Cundiff’s fault is that they can’t see the forest for the trees. God purposely implanted belonging (nationalism) into all higher creatures including man. Nationalism will always exist. Higdon and Cundiff think that they can abrogate the Natural Order. Well the Natural Order says, “Blood is thicker than water”. That is nationalism. Blood is thicker than water and when the pedal meets the metal, blood always wins out. It seems that Higdon and Cundiff are mesmerized by the shadows thrown out by the dissumlators themselves.

Wasn’t it in the children’s fairy tale Ozma of Oz that there was a strange race called Wheelers? Of course, the Oz books were written by Frank Baum, who was probably Jewish and trying in a sneaky way to indoctrinate children in the Kabbala. It all makes sense - if you’re a Wheeler.

I thought that someone like you would appreciate the extreme tolerance of those croatian neo-nazis, who accepted a Jew as their leader?
Not to speak of their predecessors during WW2 who even married “the enemy” and had no problems with having a black guy for minister of sports.
If you google “kosher nazi” and “skokie nazis”, you’ll discover that there were other such “anomalies”, Jews who have become nazi leaders.

Adriana, mental insanity isn’t necessarily synonymous to lack of intelligence or lack of education. But it is strongly connected to the inability or unwillingness to differentiate between the real world and the fantasy or imaginary world.
No one of us knows the facts of every phenomenon on Earth, but a mentally sane person is always prepared to revise her virtual (imaginary) view of the world when Reality comes knocking on her door. You appear to instead go even further into fairytale land?
If, on the other hand, your reference to the Lizards is supposed to be of the ironic kind, then I’m afraid you’ve stepped right into the big poo pit.
Connecting what I said about Jews in croatian nationalism to unsubstantiated stories of Lizards, just to make ridicule of it, fires back at yourself.
You, or anyone else, can easily look up the characters I was referring to, via Google or by going to a library, and verify that everything I said is right. Or, you could do the same research just to prove me wrong. You did neither, because you were afraid of having to confess to yourself that you in this case, and probably otherwise too, talk out of some other bodily orifice than you normally should.
