The Strange Death of Marxism(1st Edition) The European Left in the New Millennium (Volume 1) by PaulEdwardGottfried Paperback, 168 Pages, Published 2018 by University Of Missouri ISBN-13: 978-0-8262-2175-9, ISBN: 0-8262-2175-0
"The Strange Death of Marxism seeks to refute certain misconceptions about the current European Left and its relation to Marxist and Marxist-Leninist parties that existed in the recent past. Among the misconceptions that the book treats critically and in detail is that the Post-Marxist Left (a term the book uses to describe this phenomenon) springs from a distinctly Marxist tradition of thought and that it represents an unqualified rejec ..."

Gottfried argues that the ..."
After Liberalism(Reprint) Mass Democracy in the Managerial State. by PaulEdwardGottfried Paperback, 200 Pages, Published 2001 by Princeton University Press ISBN-13: 978-0-691-08982-9, ISBN: 0-691-08982-5
"In this trenchant challenge to social engineering, Paul Gottfried analyzes a patricide: the slaying of nineteenth-century liberalism by the managerial state. Many people, of course, realize that liberalism no longer connotes distributed powers and bourgeois moral standards, the need to protect civil society from an encroaching state, or the virtues of vigorous self-government. Many also know that today's "liberals" have far different go ..."

"Gottfried looks at Carl Schmitt as a critic of modern liberalism and as a defender of the national state who examined carefully Western historical and political traditions. Challenging the view that Schmitt was a mere polemicist who set out to subvert "German democracy," Gottfried's work argues instead, that Schmitt criticized liberalism and democracy from a highly reflective position that combined analytical depth with staggering erudi ..."
Conservatism in America Making Sense of the American Right by PaulEdwardGottfried Paperback, 208 Pages, Published 2009 by Palgrave Macmillan ISBN-13: 978-0-230-61479-6, ISBN: 0-230-61479-5
"This book argues that the American conservative movement, as it now exists, does not have deep roots. It began in the 1950s as the invention of journalists and men of letters reacting to the early Cold War and trying to construct a rallying point for likeminded opponents of international Communism. The resulting movement has exaggerated the permanence of its values; while its militant anti-Communism, instilled in its followers, and peri ..."

"This volume in Religion and Public Life, a series on religion and public affairs, provides a wide-ranging forum for differing views on religious and ethical considerations. The contributions address the decline of social capital-those patterns of behavior which are conducive to self-governance and the spirit of self-reliance-and its relation to the demise of the civic-humanist tradition in American education. The unifying theme, is that ..."
"This book offers an original interpretation of the achievement of Leo Strauss, stressing how his ideas and followers reshaped the American conservative movement. According to this study, Strauss and his disciples came to influence the establishment Right almost by accident. The conservative movement that reached out to Strauss and his legacy was extremely fluid and lacked a self-confident leadership. Conservative activists and journalis ..."

"At the beginning of the 1990s, conservative commentators have increasingly focused on the growing fragmentation of the American political and intellectual Right. From the early postwar years, when a small band of intellectual dissidents emerged in response to the Soviet threat, to the 1980s and the Reagan years, when the coalition of journalists, politicians, and lobbyists known as the New Right reached the height of its influence, the ..."

"So great is Simon's delight in the diversity of New York that, in recalling the sight,
“I get tears in my eyes.”73 On an equally personal note the director of Brandeis
University's Institute for Jewish Advocacy and an early sponsor of the Studies in
Prejudice, Earl Raab, notes with pleasure that “half of the American population
will soon be non-white and non-European.” Raab expresses relief that “we have
topped the point where a Na ..."
