This Week: The Good Fight
Welcome to the TPMCafe Book Club! This is where we regularly invite authors to come and discuss their most recent works with readers and invited commentators. Past Book Club authors include Thomas Frank, Anthony Shadid, Larry Diamond, George Packer, Ivo Daalder/James Lindsay, Robert Dreyfuss, Chris Mooney, Gene Sperling, Gershom Gorenberg, and Kevin Phillips.
This week we'll be discussing Peter Beinart’s The Good Fight: Why Liberals---and Only Liberals---Can Win the War on Terror and Make America Great Again . In his book, Peter forcefully argues that American liberals must embrace a fighting liberalism that confidently wages battle against Islamist totalitarianism just as Cold War liberals fought against Communist totalitarianism. Debating Peter's vision of post-9/11 liberalism and the future of Democratic foreign policy will be Armando, Ivo Daalder, Todd Gitlin, Danny Goldberg, Michael Hirsh, Karen Kornbluh, Max Sawicky, and Mark Schmitt. - kdc
