A nature of the US and the American foreign policy

Abstract

The paper deals with the essential nature of the US society and the American foreign policy in a global perspective. The fundamental aim of the paper is to get at the truth about the character of the US global politics as the only world hegemonic power currently, which uses the instrument of the war as the main source for the achievement of its main foreign policy goal: the Pax Americana as the global empire. The main conclusion of the research is that from the very beginning of the existence of the USA in 1776, the warfare is a crucial characteristic of the American culture. This very fact is a direct product and consequence of the nature of the economic system of the US followed by a consumerism mentality of the American society.
