“A brilliant and clarifying success, identifying a set of mechanisms by which a postliberal order might come into being. Here, as in Why Liberalism Failed, Deneen’s views will become the fixed center around which the debate revolves.”—Adrian Vermeule, Ralph S. Tyler, Jr. Professor of Constitutional Law, Harvard Law School
“This creative and courageous book takes us to the core of the American impasse. Deneen’s common-good conservatism is a gallant effort to preserve crucial aspects of our desiccated democratic tradition.”—Cornel West, Dietrich Bonhoeffer Professor of Philosophy and Christian Practice, Union Theological Seminary
“Regime Change offers a sober assessment of where we are and a way forward that will challenge ideologues on all sides of the political maelstrom.”—Mary Harrington, author of Feminism Against Progress
“Deneen does more than show how our present ruling class has declared war on beauty, tradition, and the social institutions that make life worth living; he articulates a vision for a populist politics that can rebuild what has been torn down.”—J.D. Vance, U.S. Senator (R-OH)
“In Regime Change, Patrick J. Deneen expertly points us beyond the opposition between a feckless populism and a rapacious elite, toward a vision of shared purpose, mutual obligation, and truly common goods. Along the way, he reaffirms his status as the West’s most important political theorist.”—Sohrab Ahmari, founder and editor of Compact and author of Tyranny, Inc.
