Fresh Vision of Conservatism in the 21st Century – Book Launch Event

In their new book, The Wisdom of Our Ancestors, Graham McAleer and Alexander Rosenthal-Pubul offer a renewed vision of conservatism for the twenty-first century. They begin with a simple question: What is the meaning of conservatism? In reply, they make a case for a “conservative humanism,” which threads a middle way between liberal universalism and its ideological alternatives. At its core, conservative humanism attempts to reconcile universal moral values (rooted in natural law) with local, particularist loyalties. In articulating this position, McAleer and Rosenthal-Pubul show that the West does, in fact, have a great deal of wisdom to offer. In his foreword to the book, Daniel J. Mahoney calls this new vision of conservatism "wise and valuable." The Danube Institute is pleased to invite you to join Professor Mahoney, and Dr. Alexander Rosenthal-Pubul, as they discuss The Wisdom of Our Ancestors and the questions that it raises.
