Conservatism

More about the book

Both in America and Europe, there is growing discomfort with the political theory called Enlightenment liberalism or liberal democracy. In Conservatism: A Rediscovery, Hazony gives clear and coherent voice to this discomfort, offering what may be the definitive argument against Enlightenment liberalism for our generation. Conservatism: A Rediscovery makes the case that Enlightenment liberalism is dismantling America, Britain, and other democratic nations—destroying every inherited concept that once held these nations together. Conservatism: A Rediscovery will argue that the crisis of legitimacy over the Trump presidency and the parallel crisis in Britain over Brexit are just a foretaste of the gathering backlash against Enlightenment ideas.
