Recenzii

"Self . . . has heroically researched the history of the culture wars from the early 1960s to the present. He offers a provocative analysis that accounts for today's alliance between small-government and social conservatives, on the one hand, and welfare-state and social liberals, on the other . . . "All in the Family" tells us a great deal about recent political history."--"The Wall Street Journal ""[A] powerful, well-researched account of how the efforts of marginalized groups to assert their rights as citizens ran up against the resistance of entrenched privilege, setting the stage for the polarization that grips US politics today . . . [Self] reminds us that our democracy is an imperfect thing, only as noble as the people who constitute it."--"The Boston Globe """All in the Family" is meticulous, convincing, and engaging . . .

In his new book, "All in the Family: The Realignment of American Democracy Since the 1960s," Robert O.

In short, disputes over the 'state of the family' became as much about the nature of the state as about the morality of the family. Self makes many new and fascinating connections between the public and private spheres of American life." --Lizabeth Cohen, author of "A Consumers' Republic: The Politics of Mass Consumption in Postwar America ""In this breathtaking chronicle of American
