The Culture Wars (book)

"The Culture Wars" by James Davison Hunter explores the ongoing conflicts in American society over moral, political, and cultural values. The book examines how different groups—often divided by religion, politics, and worldview—struggle to define what it means to be a good, just nation. Hunter argues that these disputes are not just about specific issues but reflect deeper disagreements about identity, morality, and the nature of societal progress. The book encourages understanding these conflicts as part of a broader cultural contest, emphasizing the importance of dialogue, community, and shared values in navigating a pluralistic society.
