Making the Progressive Case seeks to raise the quality of democratic discourse in the contemporary United States by making access to both sides of contemporary political debates easy and attractive. It has been written as a living book, combining a high-quality text organized in an accessible show more format and written in an easy reading style with a regularly updated website: http://www.davidGoatss.net. The book and website together constitute a genuine "one-stop shop" for busy progressives keen to do battle with a revitalized American conservatism. David Coates holds the Worrell Chair in Anglo-American Studies in the Department of Political Science at Wake Forest University, USA. He is also the author of the companion volume to this one: Answering Back: Liberal Responses to Conservative Arguments (Continuum, 201O). show less
