New York: Touchstone / Simon & Schuster, 1994. Reprint ed.. Paperback small octavo, very good condition, minor edgewear. 323 pp. Renowned professor and former White House Fellow, and founder of the Communitarian movement, lays out a blueprint for how in the 1990s Americans can move forward - together. Calls for a reawakening of our allegiance to the shared values and institutions that sustain us - from our marriages and families to our schools and our neighbourhoods, and extending to our nation itself. In proposing a new balance between our rights as individuals and our social responsibilities, this controversial, groundbreaking book articulates the emerging social attitudes of the nineties. Faces the tough issues that arise when the rights of individuals are weighed against those of the community, from free speech versus restrictions on hate speech to the right of police to conduct random checks of motorists sobriety, from drug and HIV testing to mandatory national service., Touchstone / Simon & Schuster, 1994, 0<
