At a time when democracy in America suffers from a profound sense
of cynicism, lack of trust, and disengagement, especially among
young adults, this book is a much needed antidote. Here are
original essays by some of the most distinguished and insightful
political thinkers of our time. No armchair observers, they have
advised presidents, been public servants, testified before
Congress, helped other countries draft constitutions, worked as
journalists, and won teaching awards. They participate ardently in
the polity and civil society they write about here. The main focus
of the essays is what role universities might be able to play in
reviving a sense of citizenship and civic responsibility in our
society. They represent different perspectives and differing
opinions, making this a rich stimulus for discussion and action. At
stake is nothing less than the future strength of democracy in the
United States.
