Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This volume demonstrates that the progressive mainstream has a governing agenda based on five preeminent values-'strong democracy, demand-side growth, children first, post-cold war peace' and 'respect for law'-values as much at odds with prevailing conservative orthodoxy as Copernicus was from Ptolemy.'-from Mark Green's ^IIntroduction Distributed by arrangement with the Democracy Project.^R

Includes bibliographical references (pages 472-481) and index.
