The Crisis of Liberalism
The Washington Times
Nov 29, 2024 History As It Happens
After the election, there was a hurricane of postmortems attempting to explain why Kamala Harris lost to Donald Trump. Eschewing small-bore analysis, historian Daniel Bessner posted on X, "I feel like people are missing the fundamental lesson of the election: it is not the Democratic Party that is in crisis; liberalism itself is in crisis." Liberalism—the dominant political philosophy of the American Century—appears to be a spent force amid a wave of illiberal populism and anti-establishment politics. In this episode, Bessner, who co-hosts American Prestige (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...) podcast, delves into the origins of liberalism's rise and apparent decline in this post-post-Cold War period.
