From Athens to America calls for the reversal of the withdrawal of
the character-forming function from the political domain, arguing
for public sector-federal, state, and local-involvement in
character formation. Solomon focuses on four specific virtues to
serve as a guide to public policy formation: self-esteem, joy and
optimism, equanimity, and personal responsibility. He calls for the
public sector to move beyond the efforts of families, faith
communities, and civic organizations, and take a vital role in
fostering character development and promoting these virtues.
Combining political science with philosophy, the Judeo-Christian
tradition, and medical research, this book illustrates how we
formulate public policies that enable people to grow and develop
into healthy humans, what each of us is fully capable of becoming.
