Reviews"Extraordinary on several counts...[Sowell] makes his case fairly, lucidly and persuasively."-- The New York Times Book Review
SynopsisIn this classic work, Thomas Sowell describes the two competing visions that shape debates about the nature of reason, justice, equality, and power. "A Conflict of Visions" offers a convincing case that ethical and policy disputes circle around the disparity between both outlooks., Controversies in politics arise from many sources, but the conflicts that endure for generations or centuries show a remarkably consistent pattern. In this classic work, Thomas Sowell analyzes this pattern. He describes the two competing visions that shape our debates about the nature of reason, justice, equality, and power: the constrained vision, which sees human nature as unchanging and selfish, and the unconstrained vision, in which human nature is malleable and perfectible.
