American way information


Margaret Bourke-White's famous 1937 photograph of Ohio River flood victims in front of a billboard promoting the American way as providing the "world's highest standard of living"[1]

The American way of life or the American way is the U.S. nationalist ethos that adheres to the principle of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. At the center of the American way is the belief in an American Dream that is claimed to be achievable by any American through hard work. This concept is intertwined with the concept of American exceptionalism, the belief in the unique culture of the nation.
