Wednesday Wisdom: Top Liberal books of the Week!

Liberalism is a political and economic doctrine that emphasizes individual autonomy, equality of opportunity, and the protection of individual rights. Originally against the state and later against the state and private economic actors, including businesses. Liberal theories and ideologies have been subjected to a lot of interpretation and misinterpretation.

Its history carries a crucial heritage of civilized thinking, political practice, and philosophical-ethical creativity. Here are some of the newly released books which show the real face of the world and how the world works.

‘The Rise of the New Puritans: Fighting Back Against Progressives’ War on Fun’ by Noah Rothman***

The Rise of the New Puritans

In Noah Rothman’s view, the left used to be the party of the hippies and the free spirits. Now it’s home to woke scolds and humorless ideologues. From entertainment to food to comedy to family life, there’s no area of society in which the new leftists don’t want to control. As Rothman says, Progressive Puritans are committed to waging war on decadence, frivolity, and pleasure for its own sake. In this hard-hitting critique, he uncovers the historical roots of the left’s war on fun and counsels us to rediscover the freedom and joy at the heart of the American experiment.

‘Liberalism And Its Discontent’ by Francis Fukuyama****

Liberalism and its Discontent

Classical liberalism is in a state of crisis. Developed in the wake of Europe’s wars over religion and nationalism, liberalism is a system for governing diverse societies, which is grounded in fundamental principles of equality and the rule of law. It’s no secret that liberalism didn’t always live up to its own ideals. As the renowned political philosopher, Francis Fukuyama shows in Liberalism And its Discontent, the principles of liberalism are pushed to new extremes by both the right and the left. Neoliberals made a cult of economic freedom and progressively focused on identity over human universality as central to their political vision. In this short, clear account of our current political discontents, Fukuyama offers an essential defense of revitalized liberalism for the twenty-first century.

‘Race Marxism’ by James Lindsay****

race marxism

Critical race theory is one of the hottest and most controversial topics in the world today. Race Marxism exists, to tell the truth about critical race theory in unprecedented clarity and depth. Across its six weighty chapters, Lindsay explains what critical race theory is, what it believes, where it comes from, how it operates, and what we’re dealing with. It exposes critical race theory for what it is by ranging widely across its own literature and a survey of some of the darkest philosophical currents of the last 300 in Western thought. Critical race theory is race Marxism, and, like all Marxist theories before it, it will not work this time.
