David Horowitz

    David Horowitz è un importante scrittore e sostenitore politico conservatore americano il cui lavoro esamina criticamente l'evoluzione delle ideologie politiche. Avendo attraversato personalmente una transizione da un fervente aderente alla New Left, la sua scrittura approfondisce le complessità dei sistemi di credenze politiche e dei movimenti sociali. I saggi e i commenti di Horowitz esplorano frequentemente temi di libertà e il discorso politico contemporaneo, offrendo una prospettiva unica modellata dal suo viaggio ideologico.

    Radical Son: A Generational Odyssey
    • In a narrative that possesses both remarkable political importance and extraordinary literary power, David Horowitz tells the story of his startling political odyssey from Sixties radical to Nineties conservative. A political document of our times, Radical Son traces three generations of one American family's infatuation with the radical left from the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 to the collapse of the Marxist empire six decades later. David Horowitz was one of the Founders of the New Left and an editor of Ramparts, the magazine that set the intellectual and revolutionary tone for the movement. From his vantage point at the center of the action, he populates Radical Son with vivid portraits of people who made the radical decade, while unmaking America at the same time. We are introduced to an aged Bertrand Russell, the world-famous philosopher and godson of John Stuart Mill, who in his nineties became America's scourge, organizing A War Crimes Tribunal over the war in Vietnam. There is Tom Hayden, the radical Everyman who promoted guerrilla warfare in America's cities in the Sixties, married film legend Jane Fonda, and became a Democratic state senator when his revolutions failed. We meet Huey Newton, a street hustler and murderer who founded a black militia that became the Sixties' most resonant symbol of black power and black militance. Horowitz's encounter with Newton and his Black Panthers. The most celebrated radical group of the Sixties, becomes the focal point of the story when a brutal murder committed by the Panthers changes his life forever, prompting the profound "second thoughts" that eventually led him to become an intellectual leader of conservatism and its most prominent activist in Hollywood

If the Democrats prevail in the upcoming elections, America will move even closer to a one-party state. FINAL BATTLE lays out what's at stake and provides what he believes is the best hope for saving America as we know it by creating a conservative mass movement that can defeat the left wing.

      Mortality and Faith is the second half of an autobiography of David Horowitz whose first installment, Radical Son, was published more than twenty years ago. It completes the account of his life from where the first book left off to his seventy-eighth year. In contrast to Radical Son whose focus was his political odyssey, Mortality and Faith was conceived as a meditation on age, and on our common progress towards an end which is both final and opaque. These primal facts affect all we see and do, and force us to answer the questions as to why we are here and where we are going with conjectures that can only be taken on faith. Consequently, an equally important theme of this work is its exploration of the beliefs we embrace to answer these questions, and how the answers impact our lives.

      Mortality and Faith
    • THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS IN CRISIS. The crisis facing our nation is a crisis of faith - faith in the Constitution that has shaped our destiny, faith in individual freedom and accountability, faith in the principle of equality before the law. The root cause of the lawlessness consuming America is the monopoly of the executive power in Washington and in America's urban centers by a party that has fallen under the control of a radical left that believes in breaking the law for "social justice" and puts its faith in the supremacy of the state. This Left describes itself as "progressive," but is inspired by views that are hundreds of years old and have been discredited wherever they have been put into practice. Progressives are focused on "re-imagining" American institutions and principles to conform to an ideological conception of the future which they describe as "equitable" and "socially just." To achieve this future, the left's first goal is to dismantle the constitutional order that has created the prosperity and freedoms that have grown and spread since the American founding. The left views this order as "racist," "oppressive," and in need of a "fundamental transformation."
