Granta magazine's 71st issue, "What We Think of America", published in April 2002, was a prescient reflection of the USA's deepening political unpopularity among people outside its own borders. But what do Americans themselves think of their country's new imperialism - and of the world it rules? Do they know? Do they care? Reportage, fiction, opinion from outsiders in America, and Americans on themselves.
