Book excerpt: One of the most influential documents of the Progressive Era, Drift and Mastery remains a valuable text for understanding the political thought of early twentieth-century America and a lucid exploration of timeless themes in American government and politics. A new foreword (by a former advisor to Elizabeth Warren) argues that Lippman's analysis of societal problems, and political actions needed to solve them, is highly relevant today.

Book excerpt: ".....Democracy is more than the absence of czars, more than freedom, more than equal opportunity. It is a way of life, a use of freedom, an embrace of opportunity...." --Walter Lippmann, in the Introduction, 1916 Drift and Mastery--An Attempt to Diagnose the Current Unrest, originally published in 1914, was Walter Lippmann's second book and established him as a major public intellectual within the progressive movement. This classic book explored the differences between traditional and progressive values. Lippmann argued that democracy and society were at drift due to social and economic changes, and that the mastery of science and rationality in government could restore the balance in society and serve the public interest. Drift and Mastery is a must-read for historians, political scientists, and all who are interested in American government and the Progressive Movement.

Book Synopsis A Preface to Politics by : Walter Lippmann
Download or read book A Preface to Politics written by Walter Lippmann. This book was released on 2021-03-23. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most incisive comment on politics to day is indifference. When men and women begin to feel that elections and legislatures do not matter very much, that politics is a rather distant and unimportant exercise, the reformer might as well put to himself a few searching doubts. Indifference is a criticism that cuts beneath oppositions and wranglings by calling the political method itself into question. Leaders in public affairs recognize this. They know that no attack is so disastrous as silence, that no invective is so blasting as the wise and indulgent smile of the people who do not care. I have put forward a preliminary sketch for a theory of politics, a preface to thinking. Like all speculation about human affairs, it is the result of a grapple with problems as they appear in the experience of one man. For though a personal vision may at times assume an eloquent and universal language, it is well never to forget that all philosophies are the language of particular men.
