The book explores the transformation of the United States into a post-cultural society, where traditional cultures have diminished influence over personal and public behavior. Christopher Clausen argues that this shift leads to a conformist individualism, as individuals lack external sources of authority or values. He critiques both leftist multiculturalism and rightist family values as nostalgic responses to a lost cultural landscape. Through contemporary examples, Clausen illustrates the erosion of moral demands and collective identities, presenting a nuanced analysis of modern American life.
