Slouching Towards Gomorrah: Modern Liberalism and American Decline

Welcome to America, 1996.

The “rough beast” that visionary poet Yeats foresaw in 1919 is now a full-grown monster of decadence several generations deep.

As a nation, we are pursuing a path toward Gomorrah, the biblical city burned to the ground for the sinfulness of its people.In Slouching Towards Gomorrah, one of our nation's most distinguished conservative scholars offers a prophetic view of a culture in decline, a nation in such serious moral trouble that its very foundation is crumbling.

The root of our decline, Bork argues, is the rise of modern liberalism, which stresses the dual forces of radical egalitarianism and radical individualism.
