Riassunto

Spanning the political turbulence of 1968 to the 2006 election, a critical assessment of the state of American liberalism traces the movement's role in ending the Vietnam War, promoting civil rights, and gaining ground for blacks, women, gays, and other minorities, as well as its self-destruction in the early 1970s, and its possible future with the 2008 presidential election.
