Why Liberalism Failed, by Patrick Deneen. In a time of growing inequality, accelerating change, and increasing disillusionment with the liberal democratic order we’ve known for the past few centuries, I found this book thought-provoking. I don’t agree with most of the author’s conclusions, but the book offers cogent insights into the loss of meaning and community that many in the West feel, issues that liberal democracies ignore at their own peril.

And I’ll never forget something Clem said while he was alive: “Across the South, we have a deep appreciation of history.
