Why does the right dominate debates on crime, family values, and
economic freedom? Why does the left defend such diversionary
policies as affirmative action, while equivocating on questions of
ecology and political empowerment for young people? The answer,
Cummings believes, is that too many progressives have avoided
politically sensitive issues, condemning themselves to intellectual
atrophy and political ineffectiveness. Cummings clearly is not an
advocate for the ""self-serving, hypocritical right."" But he
contends that the left handicaps itself with political correctness,
and that frank analysis of taboo topics requires us to move beyond
the traditional dichotomy of left and right. With passion and
rigor, he argues for a transformation of U.S. culture and
institutions that will enable individuals to pursue their vital
interests without impinging on the rights of others and undermining
the public good.
