Core Actors in America challenges the ontological assumptions of
America's dominant public philosophy, liberalism, and its more
affectionate subordinate, communitarianism. Neither provides a
sufficiently robust account of who we are and what we are capable
of achieving in the social and political arenas. Dr. Stephen
Terhune Smith presents an alternative view that focuses on the
world view and historical impact of core actors, morally informed
non-conformists who initiate major social and political changes,
which ultimately become part of our institutional landscape. Acting
in venues of all sizes, these core actors not only call for
profound alterations in our relationships to each other and the
world, but also demonstrate that such changes are possible. This
book develops a theoretical framework that combines historical
research with contemporary interviews that reveal patterns of moral
knowledge and action across generations. Core Actors in America is
a stimulating and sophisticated text that will appeal to those
interested in political theory and philosophical analysis.
