The Dying Citizen

Om The Dying Citizen

"Human history is full of the stories of peasants, subjects, and tribes. Yet the concept of the 'citizen' is historically rare -- and was among America's most valued ideals for over two centuries. But without shock treatment, warns historian Victor Davis Hanson, American citizenship may soon vanish. In The Dying Citizen, Hanson outlines the forces that led to this crisis. The evisceration of the middle class has made many Americans dependent on the federal government. Open borders have undermined allegiance to a particular place. Identity politics have eradicated our collective civic sense of self. And a top-heavy state has endangered personal liberty. With a new afterword that assesses how the events of 2021 have further eroded American citizenship, The Dying Citizen is a clarion call to rebuild our collective national identity."--Back cover.
