Description

Peter Viereck's seminal examination of how American and European intellectuals responded to Nazism and Soviet communism during the Cold War era. Originally written at the height of Cold War tensions and reissued with a new 2006 preface, this Routledge classic explores the moral stances intellectuals adopted against totalitarianism. Viereck, a leading voice in modern conservative thought, argues for a humanistic conservatism grounded in ethical principles across politics, art, and philosophy. The work contrasts intellectual responses on both sides of the Atlantic, investigating where thinkers found glory in their resistance to fascism and where shame accompanied their compromises or failures. Essential reading for understanding twentieth-century intellectual history and the ideological battles that shaped post-war Western thought.

Key Features

Routledge publication offering a comprehensive analysis of intellectual responses during the Cold War period.

Includes a new 2006 preface that contextualises the original text for contemporary readers.

Peter Viereck examines both American and European intellectual traditions and their distinct approaches to totalitarianism.

Explores humanistic conservatism as a philosophical counter to totalitarian ideologies in politics, ethics, and the arts.
