- Title
How to Build a Majority.
- Authors
Walzer, Michael
- Abstract
The author argues that the American left must address both issues of equality (the politics of inclusion) and class (the politics of redistribution), as of January 2018, but contends, such an approach must keep its eyes on the prize—winning political power through elections. Topics discussed include social base of the Democratic Party; disinclination of the left to deal with foreign policy issues was evident in Bernie Sanders's campaign in 2016 Presidential election; and need of efforts to bring excluded groups—minority groups, except for women—into American society, to help them become full citizens.
