Synopsis

These important articles, commissioned especially for this book by The New Democracy Project, lay out a program for progressive patriotism that candidates can run on and govern by—and that voters can use to evaluate candidates.

Each contributor is a leading progressive author, scholar, or advocate in her or his field. Each has written an original essay answering a basic question—what kind of America do we want? What are new directions for this new era? Writers both discuss the state-of-the-play in their areas and propose solutions—from the practical to the visionary—that a sympathetic President and Congress could pursue in 2005 and accomplish by 2010.

Introduced by Mark Green, the essays are by Sandy Berger, Jonathan Schell, Anne-Marie Slaughter, Gary Hart, James K. Galbraith, Robert Greenstein, Peter Orszag, Joel Seligman, Richard F. Elmore, Ron Pollack, Carl Pope, Bruce Katz, David Cole, Christopher Edley Jr., Ellen Chesler, Christopher Stone, and Mark Schmitt.
