DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Authority and the Liberal Tradition critically describes the historical foundations of modem liberalism, implicitly analyzing the status and effectiveness of American democracy. Heineman examines contemporary liberal ideology, which he argues undermines the normative basis of social stability that was an Important element in the classical liberal tradition. Heineman shows how American government has become hostage to ideology, to the advocacy of interest-group politics.Placing major Anglo-American thinkers from Hobbes to Rorty in their social contexts, Heineman traces the liberal intellectual perspective as it has evolved from the integration of culture and philosophy. He illustrates how the disjunction of theory and culture now weakens liberal thought as a foundation for effective government. Instead, he proposes returning to a philosophical position that consciously relies on community traditions and values, which can support democratic ideology.Authority and the Liberal Tradition is especially timely at this juncture In American history, as fragmentation of the national policy process threatens government''s ability to cope with major problems. This second edition includes two chapters of entirely new material: "Liberal Ideology in a Conservative Nation" and "The Dialogue of Modem Liberalism." It will be of interest to political scientists, social theorists, and philosophers.
