W. Brands confronts the vital question of why an ever-increasing number of Americans do not trust the federal government to improve their lives and to heal major social ills. How is it that government has come to be seen as the source of many of our problems, rather than the potential means of their solution? How has the word liberal become a term of abuse in American political discourse? From the Revolution on, argues Brands, Americans have been chronically skeptical of their government. This book succinctly traces this skepticism, demonstrating that it is only during periods of war that Americans have set aside their distrust and looked to their government to defend them. The Cold War, Brands shows, created an extended-and historically anomalous-period of dependence, thereby allowing for the massive expansion of the American welfare state. Since the 1970's, and the devastating blow dealt to Cold War ideology by America's defeat in Vietnam, Americans have returned to their characteristic distrust of government. With the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, Brands contends, the fate of American liberalism was sealed-and we continue to live with the consequences of its demise. 606 $aLiberalism$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPolitical culture$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1945-1989 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLiberalism$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical culture$xHistory 676 $a320.51/3/0973 700 $aBrands$b H.

He begins with a historical look at myth and mystery in pagan, Hellenistic and Classical cults, and the subsequent development in Christian mysticism and spirituality. From myth and mystery he moved to mysticism in the Christian West up to the present. Christian tradition is compared to Jewish, Islamic and Buddhist mystic experiences. Throughout, Bouyer seeks to focus on the power and meaning of these phenomena in their place in the moder 606 $aMysticism 606 $aMysteries, Religious 615 0$aMysticism. 615 0$aMysteries, Religious. 676 $a230.01 676 $a231 676 $a231.044 676 $a231/.044 676 $a240 128 700 $aBouyer$b Louis$f1913-2004.$0177633 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780921303321 996 $aThe Christian mystery$93836859 997 $aUNINA
