The New Freedom


Lu par Ben Adams

(4.3 étoiles; 7 critiques)

The New Freedom is a profound exploration of the evolving spirit of American politics, penned by Woodrow Wilson. In this work, Wilson articulates a vision for restoring the vitality and integrity of the nation’s political landscape, emphasizing the need for a renewed commitment to freedom and self-respect in both public and private life.

Rather than focusing on specific policies or programs, Wilson invites readers to consider the broader implications of political engagement and the moral responsibilities that come with it. He argues for a return to fundamental principles that can rejuvenate not only the political sphere but also the economic and social fabric of the country.

With a tone that is both reflective and aspirational, The New Freedom challenges listeners to think critically about the state of their nation and the role of individual agency in shaping a more just and equitable society. This audiobook offers a unique perspective on political philosophy that remains relevant in contemporary discussions about governance and civic responsibility.

Fascinating historical read, and still relevant today, to both sides of the "political aisle".
