"In 2011 Barack Obama invited ten distinguished biographers to the White House to ask them one question: which past American president should I emulate? This was not the first time Obama asked scholars this, but the answer he received would differ as presidential legacies waxed and waned. In 2008 Obama chose Lincoln; in 2009, Reagan; and in 2010, Theodore Roosevelt. Perspectives on Presidential Leadership is an examination of presidential legacy, and in particular an analysis of the first ever UK ranking of American presidents which took place in 2011. In thirteen chapters, thirteen individual presidential administrations are assessed. Some presidents have been considered a success, others a failure; both types are featured in these thirteen case studies in a measured attempt to understand how the perception of presidential leadership evolves, shifts, and contorts across three centuries of American politics. The case studies also derive from the expertise of the collected British, Irish and Canadian authors, all of whom are leading scholars in their fields, and many of which took part in the 2011 survey. At a time when understanding presidential legacy is in high demand, this book offers a unique international perspective. Through extended commentary and inter-disciplinary study of the UK perspective it provides groundbreaking research"--

Qu'est-ce que l'Amérique ? Pourquoi seuls les États-Unis ont gardé le nom du continent ? Comment se sont-ils imposés au monde comme le pays de la liberté ? En quoi cet impérialisme diffère-t-il de celui qu'exercèrent les puissances européennes sur leurs colonies ? Ce sont les questions que pose le philosophe japonais Osamu Nishitani. Son regard est instruit de l'expérience du Japon qui est aujourd'hui l'un des premiers vassaux des États-Unis en Orient.La figure de "l'Amérique" se dévoile ainsi comme celle d'un "devenir monde" . C'est par l'histoire d'un baptême, celui qui créa l'Amérique en la nommant, qu'Osamu Nishitani remonte aux origines du "Nouveau Monde" . Depuis les "découvertes" par l'Europe catholique d'un continent au-delà de l'Atlantique à partir de la fin du xve siècle, l'Amérique fut essentiellement une terre imaginaire, la projection onirique d'une terra nullius, territoire vierge que les émigrants pouvaient librement exploiter, en effaçant toute trace de la présence et des usages de ses premiers habitants nommés "Indiens" .Cette conception de la liberté est "le péché originel" américain. Elle n'est pas seulement la liberté de conscience religieuse qui fut au coeur de la rupture avec le Vieux Monde, mais une liberté fondée sur la propriété privée, propriété de soi et des choses, qui trouve dans le néolibéralisme sa traduction ultime. Nishitani repense ainsi l'emprise américaine sur le monde jusqu'à aujourd'hui, alors que se renverse l'illusion de sa toute-puissance. Osamu Nishitani, né en 1950, au Japon, est philosophe.Il est professeur à l'université Meiji Gakuin de Tokyo et anime un laboratoire d'études globales sur les mutations du monde contemporain à l'Université des études étrangères (TUFS) de Tokyo. Sa pensée, focalisée sur la guerre et la mort, est influencée par Georges Bataille et Maurice Blanchot, ainsi que par Pierre Legendre, dont il est le traducteur au Japon. Il a été chercheur invité à l'Institut des études avancées de Nantes en 2009.
