Description
Why Liberalism Failed by Patrick J. Deneen
A provocative analysis of the contradictions at the heart of liberalism, and the warning signs that its success is generating its own failure.
Deneen argues that liberalism is built on a foundation of flaws, from its promotion of equal rights alongside material inequality, to its reliance on consent and discouragement of civic commitment. As a result, the centripetal forces now at work on our political culture are not superficial problems, but inherent features of a system whose success is undermining its own viability.
