Dans son ouvrage intitul\u00e9 *The Confederacy Myth*, Connor Williams r\u00e9pond \u00e0 cette question \u00e0 travers une analyse historique cinglante qui red\u00e9finit notre compr\u00e9hension de la Conf\u00e9d\u00e9ration pour la ramener \u00e0 ce qu\u2019elle \u00e9tait r\u00e9ellement : une insurrection relativement modeste men\u00e9e par des fanatiques intransigeants qui a plong\u00e9 la nation dans sa guerre la plus meurtri\u00e8re.<\/p>\n

Dans son nouvel ouvrage, Williams r\u00e9v\u00e8le la v\u00e9rit\u00e9 sur la Conf\u00e9d\u00e9ration en d\u00e9mystifiant ses mythes et en mettant au jour ses tactiques politiques p\u00e9rilleuses, ses id\u00e9ologies virulentes, sa mani\u00e8re imprudente de mener la guerre, sa gouvernance impuissante et son attachement ind\u00e9fectible \u00e0 l\u2019esclavage. Mais surtout, Williams nous rappelle pourquoi les \u00c9tats-Unis ont remport\u00e9 la guerre de S\u00e9cession : cinq Am\u00e9ricains sur six ont r\u00e9sist\u00e9 \u00e0 l\u2019insurrection conf\u00e9d\u00e9r\u00e9e et ont au contraire tout mis en jeu pour lutter en faveur de la d\u00e9mocratie, afin que notre R\u00e9publique connaisse une nouvelle naissance de la libert\u00e9.<\/p>\n

*Le mythe de la Conf\u00e9d\u00e9ration* est \u00e0 la fois un ouvrage historique r\u00e9v\u00e9lateur et un rappel opportun de nos devoirs en tant que citoyens aujourd\u2019hui.<\/p>\n

\u00c0 propos de l'auteur :<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Historien public \u00e9voluant \u00e0 la crois\u00e9e des traditions universitaires et des imp\u00e9ratifs de l\u2019actualit\u00e9, Connor Williams partage les r\u00e9cits de notre pass\u00e9 afin de contribuer \u00e0 fa\u00e7onner les soci\u00e9t\u00e9s de notre avenir. En 2021 et 2022, il a travaill\u00e9 pour le Congr\u00e8s des \u00c9tats-Unis en tant qu\u2019historien en chef de la \u201c Commission de d\u00e9nomination \u201d, une instance bipartisane b\u00e9n\u00e9ficiant d\u2019une large majorit\u00e9, charg\u00e9e de supprimer tous les honneurs conf\u00e9d\u00e9r\u00e9s du minist\u00e8re de la D\u00e9fense et de mettre en avant \u00e0 leur place de nouveaux (et v\u00e9ritables) h\u00e9ros am\u00e9ricains. Outre ses activit\u00e9s d\u2019enseignant au Middlebury College et son poste de directeur principal des initiatives historiques au Sagamore Institute of the Adirondacks (un \u00e9tablissement \u00e9ducatif \u00e0 but non lucratif), Connor intervient en tant que consultant aupr\u00e8s d\u2019institutions, d\u2019organisations et de communaut\u00e9s qui cherchent \u00e0 mener des recherches, \u00e0 mener une r\u00e9flexion et \u00e0 se r\u00e9concilier de mani\u00e8re \u00e9thique et efficace avec les histoires d\u2019intol\u00e9rance, d\u2019injustice et de violence. *The Confederacy Myth* est son deuxi\u00e8me ouvrage, n\u00e9 en grande partie de sa formation doctorale, de ses exp\u00e9riences professionnelles au Congr\u00e8s et de ses \u00e9tudes sur la guerre de S\u00e9cession.<\/p>\n
