Book excerpt: Imperial Superpower Myth ( From Benign to Malignant Hegemony ) is a larger effort to understand the US worldwide hegemony experience of the American Twentieth Century ( Pax Americana ). The aim of this book is to provide a historical perspective of antinomies of the Pax Americana. Although the concept of "globalization" is quite broad, I focus on two aspects: (1) US myth of hegemon and (2) US worldwide financial leardership. The book surveys the evidence on the theoretical linkages between both US myth of hegemon state and financial leardership. Initially, the book shows the rise and crisis of US myth of hegemon shaped the worldwide economic order in the twentieth century. The period of maturity of the contemporary worldwide economic order, after the Second World War, was characterized by the role played for the US myth of hegemon. The principal idea of American Globalization is that the post-World War II economic history can be thought in the different sense that the prior worldwide economic order: US myth of hegemon and globalizing capital order.
