Description

Explore the cultural landscape of modern America through David Wagner's analysis in The New Temperance. This book examines the persistent societal drive to regulate personal behavior and moral standards. From the war on drugs and anti-smoking campaigns to the regulation of media content like v-chips and Internet censorship, Wagner identifies a recurring pattern of social control. Readers will find a deep look into how various movements attempt to govern everything from teen sex lectures to warnings about food and fat. The New Temperance provides a lens to understand the bipartisan efforts to shape public morality and the ongoing tension between individual freedom and social regulation. This work is a significant addition to the study of American sociology and social sciences, offering a perspective on how society defines and reacts to vice and sin.
