Leer America profunda es tomar contacto con el gran interrogante de nuestro destino. En las paginas que abren a la dimension no pensada de lo americano, Kusch reconstruye la maxima tension de ese contrastre como la oposicion entre el hedor y la pulcritud dos formas arquetipicas que evocan el drama existencial de las clases medias urbanas y de sus intelectuales frente a la presion de lo popular. En nuestro continente dice Kusch ""por un lado estan los estratos profundos de America, con su raiz mesianica y su ira divina a flor de piel, y por el otro los progresistas occidentalizados de una antigua experiencia del ser humano. Uno esta comprometido con el hedor y lleva encima el miedo al exterminio, y el otro en cambio es triunfante y pulcro y apunta a un triunfo ilimitado, aunque imposible"". La leccion de Kusch conjuga una incitacion filosofica y un gesto vital. Su invitacion a pensar America desde su propio entorno, lejos de constituir una presuncion localista, significa una reivindicacion del pensar mismo concebido como un acto genuino y universalizante.

El presente libro incluye como apéndice cuatro artículos inéditos en los que Kusch prolonga la modulación del dilema americano, entre el extrañamiento y la autoctonía, entre lo popular y lo "culto", entre la literatura y la vida colectiva, enigmática, monstruosa, liberadora y sagrada.

Martin Kusch puts forth two controversial ideas: that knowledge is a social status (like money or marriage) and that knowledge is primarily the possession of groups rather than individuals. He defends the radical implications of his views: that knowledge is political, and that it varies with communities. This bold approach to epistemology is a challenge to philosophy and the wider academic world.

Did the police lose control of themselves in dealing with demonstrators during the 1968 Democratic National Convention? Or were they simply men who saw themselves as protecting their city from the forces of revolution? Kusch contends that Chicago's police were more than unthinking thugs, that they had, in effect, become a counterculture, even more so than the people they ended up attacking. From Polish and Irish working class backgrounds, these men felt they represented a time gone by, a different way of life. The world they found themselves in during August of 1968 was an almost alien environment. Analyzing interviews of men who were on the streets and examining in-depth their actions and the reasons behind them, Kusch challenges traditional thinking on this pivotal event.As television cameras rolled, and flash bulbs popped, young middle-class college kids were attacked by Chicago's finest. For four days, police chased, bludgeoned, and kicked, not only the protesters, but innocent onlookers and dozens of media representatives. Going beyond stereotypes and addressing what went on behind the cameras, Kusch challenges the assumptions that the police rioted and that the violence was limited to a handful of individuals. These officers are revealed as real men, with families, lives, and fears. It was these fears―as much as their hatred of the antiwar movement and the people in it―that led to the violent showdown. This work tackles a turbulent period when presentation was key for all the major players: the protesters, the media, and the police themselves.
