Exceptionalism, Hegemonic Stability and Islamophobia in America
Author(s):
Abstract:
Since the year 1620¡ when a group of English people immigrated to America¡ exceptionalism based on the attitude of unique nation¡ racial superiority¡ the Israel of the time¡ the heaven on the earth and
have been seen in American society and¡ particularly¡ in the literature of American presidents¡ from George Washington to Barack Obama. Americans believe in the myth that their immigration from England has been the new type of the Jews'' immigration to the promised land in order to build the Gods domain¡ so that they preserve the right to fight against any people who oppose the idea. So The first question that comes to mind is that what is the origin of idea of exceptionalism¡ and then how the idea became a basis for the theory of hegemonic stability¡ and then how this thought is supposed as the basis for formation of consistency theory based on dominance or hegemonic stability and what is its relation to the dissemination of Islamophobia in American society? Our purpose in this paper is showing where American exceptionalism is rooted in¡ and illustrating the effect that this thought has in formulating the hegemony theory based on offensiveness or dominance and raising and preaching of Islam phobia in American society. So this paper supposes that American Exceptionalism makes this country''s state men act offensively and internationally that based on this¡ America has played its hegemonic role. And¡ because Islam as an anti hegemony religion¡ oppose such behavior¡ fighting Islam and Islamophobia has become Americas strategic agenda.
