Francis Fukuyama and Samuel Huntington as apologists of modern concept of American exceptionalism
The paper is focused on the work of Francis Fukuyama and Samuel Huntington, finding in them a new basis for the modern concept of American exceptionalism. The connection between the ideas of Fukuyama and Huntington's concept of American exceptionalism was spotted by American conservatives, but not developed. The author showed a direct correlation theory of the «clash of civilizations” and the theory of «the end of history» in their interdependence with the concept of exclusivity. In addition, the author concludes that nuclear weapons are replaced by civilizational identity, which was based on the idea of political pragmatism and the ability to isolate the concept conjectures truth.
