<p>"Over the decades, the <i>Review of Politics</i> has published some of the finest scholarly work on Catholicism’s engagement with liberalism, democracy, and human rights. Daniel Philpott and Ryan T. Anderson have selected “the best of the best” of these writings to include in their volume <i>A Liberalism Safe for Catholicism</i>. The book is a virtual graduate seminar on a subject that has increased in interest and importance as time has gone on—and promises to continue increasing as the Catholic Church, which was once deeply suspicious of liberalism, democracy, and human rights, has become their greatest defender against those who claim their mantle but who consistently undermine them in both theory and practice." —Robert P. George, McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence, Princeton University</p>
<p>"An important contribution to twenty-first-century debates and a reminder that, for more than seven decades, <i>The Review of Politics</i> has been one of the English-speaking world's premier journals of political theory." —George Weigel, Distinguished Senior Fellow and William E. Simon Chair in Catholic Studies, Ethics and Public Policy Center</p>
<p>“The pages of the <i>Review of Politics</i> since its founding in 1939 can be read as a chronicle of this partnership between the Catholic Church and liberal institutions—its development, its heyday, its encounter of travails, its ongoing virtues, and its persistent flaws. Indeed, the partnership has been fraught with controversy over its true extent, its robustness, and its desirability.” —from the introduction, <i>A Liberalism Safe for Catholicism?</i></p>
<p>"One needn't be a fan of liberal theory to value this superb collection of writings from <i>The Review of Politics</i>. Editors Daniel Philpott and Ryan T. Anderson have created a resource of enduring importance; a compendium of the best defenders and critics of the liberal state's compatibility with Catholic faith and life. It is vital reading for anyone interested in the future of the Church in American culture." —Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap., Archbishop of Philadelphia</p>
