A.G. Hopkins - The American Empire 

Making a stop in Columbia on his scholarly world tour, University of Cambridge Emeritus Smuts Professor of Commonwealth History A.G. Hopkins gave an April 9 talk on his most recent book, American Empire: A Global History, which “goes beyond the myth of American exceptionalism to place the United States within the wider context of the global historical forces that shaped the Western empires and the world” from the colonial era to the present.
