We are pleased, for the second time in as many years, to announce the publication of a new book by Claremont Institute Senior Fellow Glenn Ellmers.
The Narrow Passage: Plato, Foucault, and the Possibility of Political Philosophy, out now through Encounter Books, is a short, crisp account of what has gone wrong at the deepest levels in the American political community—and a path forward for concerned citizens.
As Ellmers contends, we have entered an era wherein the federal government’s democratically elected officers are powerless in comparison to their unelected, bureaucratic counterparts. The old balance of power, laid out in the Constitution, has been replaced by an entirely new structure.
The Narrow Passage describes this new structure in its frightening particulars, and therewith arms readers with the intellectual and practical framework to defend against the unique crises—spiritual, social, and political—our century presents.
See what, First Things, RealClearBooks, The Epoch Times, RealClearHistory, Charlie Kirk, and Mark Bauerlein, each have to say about this important book.
