American Virtues and Cultural Values From the 1820’s to 1990’s- Virtuous Materialism
2000 0-7734-7775-6
This volume follows the course of the concept of individualism in America. It traces how opposing factors of social interaction have swung through 170 years of American history, examines the disjunction between the past and the present, and how the present culture of nihilistic freedom has led to the denial of ethical principles that former generations took for granted.
