Death of the Liberal Class

De: Chris Hedges

Narrado por: Arthur Morey

Chris Hedges examines the failure of the liberal class to confront the rise of the corporate state and the consequences of a liberalism that has become profoundly bankrupted. Hedges argues that there are five pillars of the liberal establishment and that each of these institutions has sold out the constituents it represented. In doing so, the liberal class has become irrelevant to society at large and ultimately the corporate power elite they once served.

"Insightful.... [Hedges] is an engaging writer, and his passion alone makes for a compelling read.... Offers those of us who dare to refer to ourselves as liberal a lot to think about.” ( Harvard Political Review)©2010 Chris Hedges (P)2010 Dreamscape Media, LLC

painful truths, needed perspective

waking up to painful, articulate truth, a must read for all rebels.
Hedges gives us the clarity of our current problems and it's not Red vs Blue, it's power, greed, souless corporations and institutions vs human beings. Hedges gives us the vision of why this happened and what we must start to realize, a must read.

Intense & sobering, I couldn't stop.

Excellent historical references and perspective. Puts so many things of I was aware into a deeper, more complete context. Well researched and devastating work.

This is the kind of writing from which philosophies are born.

Tough but good read

Good book. Little slow at parts and hard to understand. The man has a great mind and even though I didn't agree with everything he said, I walked away challenged and provoked.

The Democratic-Republican Party

You must read this book. It is coherent, interesting, and keeps the "reader" going throughout its entirety. Educational, enlightening, and necessary.
