More DescriptionA passionate and urgent statement about liberalism: what it is, the measure of its importance for America, and how it can return to the forefront of American politics.Reich sees the radical conservatism that has taken over the public agenda-the desire to fight unilateral "preemptive" wars, to stifle dissent and restrict civil liberties, to shower the rich with tax breaks and cut social services-as dangerous for both America and the world. He makes clear that radical conservatives have ascended in part because of an efficient infrastructure and a political organization driven by big money, and shock troops of mediagenic personalities.In Reason, Robert Reich explains how liberals can begin to reascend the political ladder: by reclaiming the courage of their convictions, organizing those marginalized by society, and finding powerfully effective ways to minimize the abuse of wealth and power in our political system.
