Our current issue takes on this volatile and dangerous moment with a wide variety of pieces bearing on aspects of this unprecedented time in our endangered democracy: Paul Leslie writes on J.D. Vance and the American right’s misuse of philosophy to bolster their agenda; William Deresiewicz questions the Democrats’ election postmortems and investigates what he calls an ‘exhausted’ institutionalized Liberalism while Matt Johnson considers Liberal self-doubt; Martin Jay writes about Trump’s inheritance of the legacy of the left.
