Summary:
In this penetrating volume, Zachary Karabell examines the continuous
thread that runs through the tapestry of the American experience --
the belief that we can create a perfect society -- and envisions what
the next great era will be. Just as the Puritan vision of a city on a
hill was supplanted by the Founding Fathers' vision of individuality,
just as the expansive vision of a government-led Great Society was
eclipsed by the New Economy of the 1990s, so too is the New Economy
being replaced by what Karabell contends will be a period when
community and spirituality occupy center stage.
