Descripción editorial
I THIS IS A RARE BOOK -- erudite and readable, analytical but urgent, a work of political science which the author admits he wrote as "a patriot." While few political theorists outside of certain radical circles are likely to admit that they are not patriotic, one encounters fewer still who write from an explicit desire to preserve and to protect their country. Not just its political institutions, or the ideology which undergirds them, but the concrete, shared reality that is America--so much of which, Huntington convincingly demonstrates, is the result not of inexorable historical processes, or the unfolding of mankind's deepest yearnings and some obscure divine decree, but happy historical accidents. Serendipity.
