Bøger af David Davenport

Today, American "rugged individualism" is in a fight for its life on two battlegrounds: in the policy realm and in the intellectual world of ideas that may lead to new policies. In this book, the authors look at the political context in which rugged individualism flourishes or declines and offer a balanced assessment of its future prospects.

As a response to the Great Depression, President Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal is widely understood as a turning point in American history. David Davenport and Gordon Lloyd go even further, calling the New Deal "America's French Revolution", refashioning American government and public policy in ways that have grown to epic proportions today.
