| 520 | |a America was once a country that did big things, but today--despite a host of pressing challenges--we struggle to move the needle. While conservatives deserve some blame, progressives have overlooked an unlikely culprit: their own fears of "the Establishment." A half century ago, progressivism exchanged getting things done for boxing in government. Reformers prioritized speaking truth to power over exercising that power for good. This gridlock has damaged the public's faith in public institutions and stifled the progressive movement's ability to deliver on its promises--which opened the door for MAGA-style populism. In this book, Marc J. Dunkelman draws on his experience from over a decade working in politics to outline a path for progressives to break through the paralysis and restore confidence in democratically elected government, through a willingness to acknowlege their missteps and rediscover their roots.-- |c Publisher description | ||
