Second Edition
Paul Goldstene argues that American political attitudes have been and remain overwhelmingly liberal, but that most liberals cannot understand the ideology of liberalism as it applies to the current American order. Stressing that the impact of the postindustrial political economy and the power of the corporate giants has rendered past liberal power relationships inoperable, he calls for a re-examination of liberal beliefs in view of present realities. He also explores the potential of modern science as a means of preserving the liberal commitment to balance.
