Olivier Zunz shows how American elites appropriated the twentieth century. Policymakers, corporate managers, engineers, scientists, and social scientists promoted a social contract of abundance and a controversial theory of pluralism. Their efforts created a model of middle class behavior for America and for the rest of the world.
A historical study by Croatian scientist and maritime publicist Juraj Carić, in which the author presents in detail the life, ideas and exploits of the famous navigator Christopher Columbus, as well as the historical context of his voyage in 1492.
