After Liberalism by Paul Edward Gottfried

Mass Democracy in the Managerial State

This thought-provoking work delves into the transformation of Western political landscapes, critiquing the decline of classical liberalism and the rise of managerial states. It examines how modern liberalism has shifted from its roots, evolving into a system that prioritizes bureaucratic control and social engineering over individual freedoms and traditional values. The narrative explores the implications of this shift on cultural identity, political discourse, and societal norms, offering a critical perspective on the consequences of abandoning foundational liberal principles in favor of expansive governmental oversight.
