While some welcomed progressive ideas on identity, gender, and race, others perceived them as the expression of a new form of American cultural imperialism incompatible with Frances universal model, which rejects distinctions among citizens based on culture, race, religion, ethnicity, sex, or gender.</p><p>Given that <em>wokisme</em> is seen by many in France as a facet of American soft power, this book delves into French ambivalence toward Americanization. Combining analysis of political, academic, and journalistic discourse with international relations approaches, it unpacks the topic of French anti-Americanism, especially in the context of recent debates on U.S.-style woke ideology, intersectionality, and cancel culture.</p>...7041446The Wokisme Controversy17591954https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-wokisme-controversy-9798765132418/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7001942/image.jpg?v=638782251641530000InStockMXN99999PR_DIEbook2025Inglés
