<p>'Deneen does more than show how our present ruling class has declared war on beauty, tradition, and the social institutions that make life worth living; he <strong>articulates a vision for a populist politics that can rebuild what has been torn down</strong>' - JD Vance, United States Senator</p>

<p>'<em>Regime Change</em> offers <strong>a sober assessment of where we are</strong>, and <strong>a way forward that will challenge </strong>ideologues on all sides of the political maelstrom' - Mary Harrington</p>

<p>'In <em>Regime Change</em>, Patrick Deneen <strong>expertly points us beyond the opposition between a feckless populism and a rapacious elite</strong>, toward a vision of shared purpose, mutual obligation, and truly common goods.

<p>'A brilliant and clarifying success, identifying a set of mechanisms by which a post-liberal order might come into being. Here, as in <em>Why Liberalism Failed</em>, Deneen’s views will become the fixed center around which the debate revolves' - Adrian Vermeule, Ralph S. Tyler Professor of Constitutional Law, Harvard Law School</p>

<p>'This creative and courageous book takes us to the core of the American impasse. Deneen’s Common Good conservatism is a gallant effort to preserve crucial aspects of our desiccated democratic tradition' - Cornel West, Union Theological Seminary</p>

<p>‘Deneen writes <strong>a fluent, fiery prose </strong>that mixes moral exhortation, anti-liberal polemic and philosophical critique … Deneen’s to-do list includes fresh ideas that <strong>deserve attention from anyone — liberal or not — appalled by political gridlock, economic inequality and social neglec</strong>t’ - Edmund Fawcett, <em>Financial Times</em></p>

ENLIGHTENMENT PHILOSOPHERS PROMISED THAT SWEEPING AWAY THE OLD ARISTOCRACY AND TRADITIONAL INSTITUTIONS WOULD LIBERATE US. To some extent it did – but it also undermined the things that nourished ordinary people: family, marriage, religion and local community. In Regime Change, Patrick Deneen examines the western tradition and argues that we must use the neglected resources of our philosophical heritage to construct a better way forward. Drawing on thinkers ranging from Aristotle and Machiavelli to Burke and Disraeli, Deneen develops a postliberal alternative. This iconoclastic book challenges the easy assumptions of left and right. It is a blueprint for the radical changes we need to negotiate the paradoxes of the 21st century, while remaining alive to the wisdom of the past. ‘Regime Change offers a sober assessment of where we are and a way forward that will challenge ideologues on all sides of the political maelstrom’ — MARY HARRINGTON, author of Feminism Against Progress ‘Articulates a vision for a populist politics that can rebuild what has been torn down’ — J. D. VANCE, United States Senator and author of Hillbilly Elegy
