First published in 1997. Examining race, law, and religion in
today's America, The Least of These highlights the power of these
principles to both divide and unite, and promotes a new form of
liberalism that incorporates the spiritual values long neglected by
earlier progressive liberals. Relaunching the fundamental tenet of
progressive liberalism-that a justly ordered society must protect
the interests and promote opportunities for the least advantaged of
its population-Anthony Cook argues for a revival of the progressive
vision of American politics. While the affirmative action debates
smolder around the country, Cook contends that the spiritual
foundation of this liberal tenet must be unearthed and elaborated
to fit our times before we can attempt to tackle the issues that
the civil rights era has left unanswered. As the twentieth century
closes, The Least of These provides a greater understanding of the
roots of our ongoing socio-political struggles, and serves as an
invaluable profile of progressive liberal politics from World War
II to the present.
