The Rise and Fall of Freedom - Paperback
by Linda C. Raeder (Author)
The Rise and Fall of Freedom is the third of three volumes comprising a comprehensive study of freedom and American society. Volume III explores the historical rise of the free society in the West and especially its relation to the religious worldview that inspired the quest for individual freedom. It further examines the threats to the free society posed not only by the modern ideological movements but related paradigms such as Progressivism, Postmodernism, and Multiculturalism. Volume I, Freedom and Political Order, examines the meaning of freedom and the relation among freedom, law, and rights. Volume II, Freedom and Economic Order, explores the relation of individual freedom to the economic arrangements of society, in particular, the competing paradigms of capitalism and socialism.
