The book explores the decline of liberalism in the United States since the 1970s, attributing it to arrogance following past successes like the New Deal. Douglas Massey critiques how liberals, in addressing race and class issues, alienated the public by imposing government policies. He contrasts this with the rise of conservative ideologies promoting free markets and limited government. Massey argues for a necessary liberal realignment, emphasizing the need for a coherent ideology that clearly communicates the government's essential role in fostering a fairer and more unified society.
