The Conservative Heart - How to Build a Fairer, Happier, and More Prosperous America

Arthur C. Brooks, one of the country''s leading policy experts and the president of the American Enterprise Institute, offers a bold new vision for conservatism as a movement for happiness, unity, and social justice--a movement of the head and heart that boldly challenges the liberal monopoly on "fairness" and "compassion." Drawing on years of research, Brooks presents a social justice agenda for a New Right--an inclusive, optimistic movement with a positive agenda to fight poverty, promote equal opportunity, extol spiritual enlightenment, and help everyone lead happier and more fulfilling lives. Firmly grounded in the four "institutions of meaning"--family, faith, community, and meaningful work--it is a call for a government safety net that actually lifts people up and offers a vision of true hope through earned success. Clear, well-reasoned, accessible, and free of vituperative politics, The Conservative Heart is a welcome strategy for conservatives looking for fresh, actionable ideas--and for politically independent citizens who believe that neither side is adequately addressing their needs or concerns.
