Description

Explore the fundamental principles that shape the American experience with Core Values in American Life: Living with Contradictions. Written by Arthur G. Neal and Helen Youngelson-Neal, this book provides a deep look into the intellectual map of American society. It examines the values that appear in national formal documents, such as the US Constitution, and those inscribed on the Statue of Liberty. This work analyzes how these prominent values function in both word and deed. It looks at the rights and privileges that define the nation and how these concepts have shaped historical destiny. By studying the values most extensively propagated by the general population, readers gain a better understanding of the tensions that arise when real-world situations cause these core beliefs to conflict. This text is an essential resource for those studying the social sciences, anthropology, and the sociological foundations of American life.
