    Wednesday, September 26, 2018

    Research | Articles | by Peter Berkowitz
    Friday, September 28, 2018

    In “Why Liberalism Failed,” Patrick Deneen makes an eye-opening contribution to the critique of liberalism. Equating liberalism with the modern tradition of freedom, he distills abuses of state power, nature, culture, technology, and education that are undertaken in freedom’s name yet leave citizens less self-sufficient, less disposed to cooperate, and less capable of looking beyond material goods and social status to the cultivation of character and to the claims of duty.

    The Case Against Compromise

    Research | Articles | by Peter Berkowitz
    Thursday, June 1, 2006

    BUSH ALMIGHTY: Two Views of George W. Bush

    Research | Videos
    Monday, October 27, 2003

    Admirers and critics have two diametrically opposed views of President George W. Bush. The admirers see a compassionate conservative at home and defender of the nation against terrorism and rogue states abroad. Critics see a radical conservative at home who led the nation into a destructive and unnecessary war abroad. Why do conservatives and liberals so often seem to be describing two different men when discussing President George W. Bush? Is it possible to find any common ground on which view of President Bush is closer to the truth?
