Basic Books A Time To Build : From Family And Community To Congress And The Campus, How Recommitting To Our Institutions Can Revive The American Dream

Americans are living through a social crisis. Our politics are polarized and bitterly divided. Culture wars rage on campuses, social media, and sometimes in the streets and public squares. And for too many Americans, alienation can descend into despair, weakening families and communities. Left and right alike have responded with anger at our institutions, and use only metaphors of destruction to describe the path forward: cancelling, defunding, draining the swamp.But, as Yuval Levin argues, this is a misguided prescription, rooted in a defective diagnosis.The social crisis we confront is defined not by an oppressive presence but by a debilitating absence of the forces that unite us and militate against alienation. In A Time to Build, now updated with a new epilogue, Levin argues that today is not a time to tear down, but rather to build and rebuild by committing ourselves to the institutions around us.From the military to churches, from families to schools, these institutions provide the forms and structures we need to be free.By taking concrete steps to help them be more trustworthy, we can renew the ties that bind Americans to one another.
