Recs if you like Overthrow: America's Century of Regime Change from Hawaii to Iraq...
We’re just here to “help”
This list critically examines the history of U.S. intervention in other countries, unpacking not only regime changes, but how it’s sold to the public. These books explore the political, economic, and strategic interests driving U.S. intervention, the manufactured consent that make it palatable at home, and the severe consequences and destabilization that inevitably follow abroad.
Ps. This is my first list so I’d appreciate any feedback & recommendations of reads to add
