Updates

Announcing Regime Change by Patrick Deneen

Postliberals – those who argue that the emphasis of contemporary liberalism on individual autonomy and self-fashioning, progress, consent and abstract rights has begun to have deleterious consequences for our social fabric and flourishing – are very good at writing critiques. What is harder is outlining a constructive, positive strategy and formulating proposals for correcting liberal over-reach and its consequences. This is, however, what Patrick Deneen aims to do in his new book, Regime Change, which I am delighted to announce will be published in the UK by Forum.

Announcing Gay Shame by Gareth Roberts

I’m delighted to say here at Forum we’ve signed the brilliant Gareth Roberts to address these tensions. His new book – provisionally entitled Gay Shame: The Rise of Gender Ideology and the New Homophobia – promises not only to be a hard-hitting look at a very important issue, but also a book laced with his characteristic wit and humour.
