Description
Rugged Individualism Dead Or Alive? The concept of rugged individualism is facing a critical test in both policy and intellectual circles. In this thought-provoking book, authors David Davenport and J. Gordon Lloyd examine the historical context in which rugged individualism has thrived or been challenged, offering a balanced assessment of its future prospects. From its founding principles, as reflected in the Declaration of Independence, to its current state, the authors explore different periods in American history when rugged individualism was strong or under attack. They argue that there is a delicate balance between equality and liberty, and that this balance must be maintained to ensure individual Americans can enjoy their freedoms. The book ultimately looks towards new frontiers of the 21st century, where rugged individualism may find nourishment and growth.
