SynopsisA dedicated young Conservative, Jonathan Krohn presents Conservative philosophy's basic tenets in this remarkably earnest and impeccably reasoned primer. This book, clear and informative, is a history lesson, a manifesto, and a roadmap for the future. Anyone interested in the basic differences between Conservative and Liberal thought will find Krohn's writing at once compelling, informative, intelligent, and--for those who do not agree with him--in some respects controversial., Defining Conservatism is a passionate appeal to a political movement that is re-examining its identity as Republicans set their sights on 2010 and beyond. A dedicated young conservative, Jonathan Krohn presents conservative philosophy's basic tenets in this remarkably earnest and impeccably reasoned primer. This book, clear and informative, is a history lesson, a manifesto, and a roadmap for the future. It is Krohn's rallying call to action not just for conservatives, but for anyone interested in the political state of our nation. In Defining Conservatism , Krohn challenges "government expansionists," whose faith in Washington and the basic pillars of government exceeds their faith in the individual. At the same time, he boldly stakes out four unshakeable principles for conservatives to rally around: ? Respect for the Constitution ? Respect for human life ? Belief in minimalist government ? Insistence upon personal responsibility Anyone interested in the basic differences between conservative and liberal thought will find Krohn's writing at once compelling, informative, intelligent, and--for those who do not agree with him--in some respects controversial. Defining Conservatism is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the basic principles upon which the United States was founded, and perhaps most importantly, for anyone who is concerned with the future of this country., Written from the perspective of a Conservative to help the reader better understand what Conservatism really means to its adherents, Defining Conservatism is a book that allows for a clearer understanding of Conservatism's basic principles and its philosophical underpinnings. Written by one of America's up-and-coming writers and thinkers, Jonathan Krohn's Defining Conservatism describes from the inside an ideology at an integral moment in its history. In Defining Conservatism, Jonathan Krohn describes the Conservatives' challenge to the "government expansionist," whose faith in Washington exceeds his faith in the individual, according to Conservatives. And he stakes out four principles that Conservatives rally around: Respect for the Constitution Respect for human life Belief in minimalist government Insistence on personal responsibility Anyone interested in the basic differences between Conservative and Liberal thought will find Krohn's writing at once compelling, informative, smart, and deep. Defining Conservatism is a must-read for anyone interested in the rationale behind Conservative thought. Book jacket.
