Putting Liberalism in Its PlacePrinceton University Press, 2009 M01 10 - 336 páginas In this wide-ranging interdisciplinary work, Paul W.

Because liberalism is blind to sacrifice, it is unable to explain how the modern state has brought us to both the rule of law and the edge of nuclear annihilation. We can understand this modern condition only by recognizing that any political community, even a liberal one, is bound together by faith, love, and identity. |
