Description:
Brad Stetson argues that the nature and application of contemporary liberalism is significantly dissonant with the deepest inclinations and most persistent moral sentiments of human beings, and that it therefore distorts human self-understanding and defaces human dignity. This mismatch between human nature and the essence of contemporary liberalism hobbles our public life, and -- the author suggests -- is the Gordian knot that must be loosed if the new millennium is to manifest a more humane and satisfying American civitas.
