What We Get Wrong About A City on a Hill’ by Daniel Rogers for Washington Post
The article What we get wrong about a city on a hill by Daniel Rogers for Washington Post discusses how the notion of American moral supremacy appeared in the common discourse. Special attention is given to the metaphor city on a hill, which was allegedly coined by Gov. John Winthrop in the 17th century and used in political rhetoric by Ronald Reagan. Reagan used it during his presidential campaign and presidency as a sign that the US would revive as a global hegemon under his rule. For me, it is unacceptable to use the qualities of supremacy and global leadership as the core features of national identity. After the collapse of some dictatorships like Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Francoist Spain, the whole world realized the dangers of such self-identification. Thus, the discourse of being moral leaders by inheritance is a highly inappropriate one in the 21st century.
