Communitarianism is currently the subject of much interest and
scrutiny by both liberals and conservatives. In Community and
Tradition, eight distinguished scholars articulate the clearest
statement to date of the conservative vision of community. In
contrast to the progressive model of community, which emphasizes
secular civil theologies, government, participatory democracy, and
utilitarian moralities, the contributors to this volume identify
and locate the roots of friendship and common purpose in tradition,
intermediate associations, local autonomy, and religious belief.
Not only do the contributors renew and refine the conservative
understanding of community, but they also express their belief that
the liberal version of community needs to be challenged. This
volume is essential reading for all political theorists who study
the balance between rights and responsibilities within the context
of the community.
