In this article, Jason Stevens tries to convey how the American mind was shaped and modified during the Cold War. He states "...was shaped by 'countermodernism,' a sacred discourse that traded the utopian accents of “modernism” for dystopian emphases on human fallibility and divine judgment." Stevens thinks that the slight chance that America can turn into a dystopian society drove the force for America to fight against communism.
