Eminent researchers, such as Jean Twenge and Jonathan Haidt, place much of the blame squarely on social media.

How has the book shaped decades of debates about civil liberties and public morality, and why will it remain relevant in the future?

Please join EPPC and its co-sponsors for a conference on Making Men Moral’s enduring influence on public policy.
