Broke and Patriotic
Why Poor Americans Love Their Country"This is superlative ethnography, allowing voices too little heard to speak for themselves, and to do so with pride. Social understandings can be furthered more by this book than by any other at present in the marketplace."—John A. Hall, McGill University "A superb book! Anyone who wants to know why poor Americans love their country should read this. The answers Duina finds to this question are startling and reveal deep and enduring beliefs in freedom, God, and the American Dream. The lessons Duina provides are especially important given the current state of American politics."—John L. Campbell, Dartmouth College and Copenhagen Business School "An excellent, timely book, which can help us understand the results of the recent elections. The American poor do not envy the rich. They are proud to be Americans and derive personal dignity from membership in the nation. Rather than blame their poverty on society, they take responsibility for it. The elite talk in the great cities would not make sense to them. A sociological counterpart to Hillbilly Elegy."—Liah Greenfeld, author of Mind, Modernity, Madness
