American Exception: Empire and the Deep State

Aaron Good has a PhD in Political Science from Temple University. His dissertation, "American Exception: Hegemony and the Tripartite State," examined the state, elite criminality, and US hegemony. It was an expansion of a previously published article, "American Exception: Hegemony and the Dissimulation of the State." Prior to completing his doctorate, he worked on the 2008 Obama campaign in Missouri. Born and raised in Indiana, he has since lived and worked in Taiwan and Shanghai. He currently resides with his wife and son in the greater Philadelphia area where he has been a history and social science instructor.
