- Synopsis
- A sweeping, ambitious history of American democratic socialism from one of the world&’s leading intellectual historians and social ethicists &“Dorrien is supremely qualified for the task he has set himself in this very thoughtful, necessary, and timely book.&”—Maurice Isserman, author of The Other American: The Life of Michael Harrington Democratic socialism is ascending in the United States as a consequence of a widespread recognition that global capitalism works only for a minority and is harming the planet&’s ecology. This history of American democratic socialism from its beginning to the present day interprets the efforts of American socialists to address and transform multiple intersecting sites of injustice and harm. Comprehensive, deeply researched, and highly original, this book offers a luminous synthesis of secular and religious socialisms, detailing both their intellectual and their organizational histories.
