Return of the Strong Gods: Nationalism, Populism, and the Future of the West

The Return of the Strong Gods by R.R.

Reno is a thought-provoking book that delves into the current political climate and the rise of populism and nationalism in America and Europe.

The author argues that after three generations of the postwar consensus, which promoted open borders, markets, and minds, the social solidarity rooted in family, faith, and nation is dissolving.

This has led to a longing for a sense of belonging and meaning among individuals.

Reno warns that the strong gods will return in one form or another, and our task is to attend to those that inspire the best of our traditions.

This book provides a unique perspective on the current political landscape and offers insights into how we can move forward in a way that promotes social cohesion and meaningful connections among individuals.
