The Essential Communitarian Reader cover

Communitarian thought has had a profound influence on contemporary American policy. Leaders as diverse as Al Gore and Jack Kemp have embraced it as the most powerful way of restoring America's communities and redeeming its political institutions. This comprehensive collection contains essays from the nation's most respected thinkers, including Mary Ann Glendon, Senator Bill Bradley, Jean Bethke Elshtain, and many others.

Communitarianism promises to shape a new political era in the way progressivism reshaped our nation a century ago. -- Bill Bradley
For a movement that is only a few years old, the communitarians are bursting with ideas for rebuilding what they see as the pillars of society—the family, the school, and the community. * The San Francisco Chronicle *
