Recensione

'The insolvency of our national government and several liberal Democratic states, Detroit's bankruptcy, and the continuing struggles of European welfare states suggest that the Progressive answer, whatever it may be, is not as viable as our dominant intellectual culture has thought ... The essays present scholarship from a range of disciplines, including intellectual history, political science, American history, philosophy, and law ... such collaborations help to redress the imbalance of views in higher education and our elite culture, which is an element of our worsening cultural insolvency.' Paul O. Carrese, Claremont Review of Books
