Which of the following is not a conclusion of Tony Judt’s ”What have we learned, if anything?” (in Sources) Westerners have a misguided faith in the state as a source of security. Americans never had to learn the terrible costs of twentieth-century wars, and they therefore have an overdeveloped taste for military solutions. Our reaction to the threat of terrorism is all out of proportion to the actual threat that it poses us. Westerners, and especially Americans, unwisely assume that our’s is a new world and our problems are unprecedented, when in fact we are actively ignoring the lessons of history.
