“This capacious and essential volume presents American political thought not as a shared set of political commitments but as a shared resource that allows us to better understand rival commitments. It shows how the tradition privileges questions, not conclusions. To peruse this extraordinary anthology is to rediscover possibilities for shaping our collective political life.”—Russell Muirhead, New Hampshire state representative and coauthor of Ungoverning
