Americentrism

It refers to the practice of viewing the world from an overly US-focused perspective, with an implied belief, either consciously or subconsciously, in the preeminence of American culture.

[3] Scholarship of Americentrism traces the ideological system's origins, historically, to the late 1700s following the established independence of the United States.

[8] Critics of Americentrism denote the ideology in fear of misunderstandings between peoples or nations, and in some cases, escalating into severe racial conflicts or even wars.

Critics have noted the usage of Americentric views specifically in the United States' public school systems' educational policy in world history.

Jeffrey Arnett, a professor of psychology at Clark University supports the idea, writing of scholarship, to his critique, disregarding the diversity of human experiences and contexts.
