Abstract |
Owen argues that the way to ensure democracy's survival in the United States is to reimagine liberalism -- to view it as less about disruption and perpetual openness and more about commitment, community, and country. Liberalism must reject the "great delusion" that it can defeat autocracies everywhere and convert them into liberal democracies, yet also counter moves by China and Russia to make the world safe for autocracy. - publisher. |
