The book explores the potential for a modern civic renewal inspired by the Progressive Era, highlighting the contributions of influential figures like Robert M. La Follette, John Dewey, Jane Addams, and Louis Brandeis. It examines both the successes and failures of this movement while advocating for its ideals of fair and deliberative democracy as a solution to today's widespread dissatisfaction with major institutions. Through this historical lens, the author argues for a revitalization of civic engagement and political reform in contemporary society.
