The Therapeutic State: Justifying Government at Century's EndNYU Press, 1998 - 395 pages The United States has always been profoundly conflicted about the role and utility of its government. Simmering just beneath the surface of heated public discussions over the appropriate scope and size of government are foundational questions about the very purpose of the state, and the basis of its authority. America's changing and diversifying cultural climate makes common agreement about the government's raison d'ĂȘtre all the more difficult. |
