Hardback. Zustand: Good. Classical liberalism promised to overthrow the old aristocracy, creating an order in which individuals could create their own identities and futures. To some extent it did-but it has also demolished the traditions and institutions that nourished ordinary people and created a new and exploitative ruling class. This class's economic libertarianism, progressive values, and technocratic commitments have led them to rule for the benefit of the 'few' at the expense of the 'many,' precipitating our current political crises. In Regime Change, Patrick Deneen proposes a bold plan for replacing the liberal elite and the ideology that created and empowered them. Grass-roots populist efforts to destroy the ruling class altogether are naive; what's needed is the strategic formation of a new elite devoted to a 'pre-postmodern conservatism' and aligned with the interest of the 'many.' Their top-down efforts to form a new governing philosophy, ethos, and class could transform our broken regime from one that serves only the so-called meritocrats. Drawing on the oldest lessons of the western tradition but recognising the changed conditions that arise in liberal modernity, Deneen offers a roadmap for these changes, offering hope for progress after 'progress' and liberty after liberalism.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Wherever we turn in America today, we see angry citizens disparaging government, distrusting each other, avoiding civic life, and professing a hatred of politics and politicians of all stripes. Is our situation hopeless? Wilson Carey McWilliams wouldn?t think so. McWilliams, one of the preeminent political theorists of the twentieth century, was closely identified with an ambitious intellectual enterprise to reclaim and restore democracy as a source of national veneration, inspiration, and salvation. Better than most of his contemporaries, he understood and illuminated the major sources of the political malaise that afflicts our nation?s citizens. For him, the key to reinvigorating our republic depends on our ability to reclaim the ?second voice? of American politics?the one that emanates from our literature, churches, families, and schools and speaks out on behalf of community and civic responsibility. The writings gathered here cohere into McWilliams?s most mature and most developed philosophical statement?the distillation of a distinguished career of thinking about the American experiment. From insights into ?The Framers and the Constitution? to reflections on ?America as Technological Republic,? he shares a love for an older tradition of democracy, one based upon the active self-rule of self-governing citizens. ?Protestant Prudence and Natural Rights? and ?On Equality as the Moral Foundation for Community? may force readers to adjust their understandings of American politics, while ?Democracy and the Citizen? and ?Political Parties as Civic Associations? will resound for observers of the current political scene, regardless of party. Carey McWilliams not only offers a prescient analysis of the current crisis in American citizenship and governance but also shows us what sources within the American tradition might exist to save us from our worst selves. His broad and iconoclastic approach to American politics should appeal to both conservatives and liberals?to anyone, in fact, who cares about the state of democracy in America. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Has liberalism failed because it has succeeded? ?Why Liberalism Failed offers cogent insights into the loss of meaning and community that many in the West feel, issues that liberal democracies ignore at their own peril.??President Barack Obama ?Deneen?s book is valuable because it focuses on today?s central issue. The important debates now are not about policy. They are about the basic values and structures of our social order.??David Brooks, New York Times Of the three dominant ideologies of the twentieth century?fascism, communism, and liberalism?only the last remains. This has created a peculiar situation in which liberalism?s proponents tend to forget that it is an ideology and not the natural end-state of human political evolution. As Patrick Deneen argues in this provocative book, liberalism is built on a foundation of contradictions: it trumpets equal rights while fostering incomparable material inequality; its legitimacy rests on consent, yet it discourages civic commitments in favor of privatism; and in its pursuit of individual autonomy, it has given rise to the most far-reaching, comprehensive state system in human history. Here, Deneen offers an astringent warning that the centripetal forces now at work on our political culture are not superficial flaws but inherent features of a system whose success is generating its own failure.…
