Failing Liberty 101

How We are Leaving Young Americans Unprepared for Citizenship in a Free Society

Buch

Argues that there is a failure to prepare today's young people to be responsible American citizens. It identifies the problems - the declines in civic purpose and patriotism, crises of faith, cynicism, self-absorption, ignorance, indifference to the common good - and shows that disregard of civic and moral virtue as an educational priority is having a tangible effect on the attitudes, understanding, and behaviour of large portions of youth today.
