Drawing on psychology, sociology, history, and philosophy, this book presents a new theory of how political cultures ranging from the USA to China are built from representations and interpretations of the past. Top-down (societal) and bottom-up (individual-centred) approaches work together to explain how human societies change, and resist change.
