PnyxWhat should be done about the current state of Liberalism?Is Liberalism alive, dying, or dead? Each political camp points to
symptoms of a problem. On left, right wing populism. On the right, the disintegration of values and culture. And from libertarians an ever increasing corporate-bureaucratic-state hybrid pervading our lives. How did we get here and where do we go? Daniel McCarthy and Samuel Moyn dissect these questions from a right and left perspective.
