A propos de cet article

This is an urgent, data-driven collection of essays from AEI scholar Nicholas Eberstadt that confronts America's paradox of unmatched wealth and power alongside rising discontent, examining the birth rate crisis and demographic decline, millions of men without work, welfare dependency, the education crisis, and mass criminality, and revealing a "New Misery" that challenges what Americans think they know about the nation's health as it approaches its 250th anniversary.

Heshows that the United States' best years may yet be to come--but not ifAmericans are unwilling to face the challenges their human arithmetic laysbare.…
