America's culture war - which pits traditionalists, unrelenting
defenders of the social orthodoxy, against modernists, agitators
for social change - has simmered and seethed since the birth of the
nation. But in the turbulent decade of the 1960s, the culture war
erupted in the political arena, where it thunders on today.
"Constant Conflict" examines how the evolution of cultural issues
as political tools has rocked the balance of political power in
America, and continues to do so. Through an expansive coverage of
events - from Vietnam, Nixon, discrimination, abortion, economic
imbalance, and morality in political behavior - Washington
journalist Robert Shogan provides an objective and informed look at
how Americans feel about themselves and their country in the first
decade of the new millennium. Updates to the paperback show how the
culture war has reached new heights in the Bush presidency, with
the emphasis on Godliness and the divisiveness against the Axis of
Evil. Shogan also discusses how the cultural conflicts will impact
the 2004 campaign.
