The institutions that once dominated our culture have become smaller, more diverse, and personalized. Individualism has come at the cost of dwindling solidarity. No wonder, then, that voters and politicians alike are nostalgic for a time of social cohesion and economic success.\u003cbr\u003eBut the policies of the past are inadequate to the America of today. Both parties are stuck presenting old solutions to new problems. In \u003ci\u003eThe Fractured Republic\u003c\/i\u003e, Yuval Levin details his innovative answers to the dysfunctions of our fragmented national life. By embracing subsidiarity and diversity and rejecting extremism and nostalgia, he believes we can revive the middle layers of society and enable an American revival.\u003cbr\u003eUpdated with a new epilogue, Levin helps us navigate our fraught political waters.","brand":"Basic Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47121760813296,"sku":"9780465093250","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780465093250","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
