The New Threats to Freedom Book Series
The American Dream Is Not Dead
Populists on both sides of the political aisle routinely announce that the American Dream is dead. Michael R.

New Threats to Freedom
In the twentieth century, free people faced a number of mortal threats, ranging from despotism, fascism, and communism to the looming menace of global terrorism.

These new threats are quietly eroding our hard-won freedoms, often unchallenged and, in some cases, widely accepted as beneficial.
In New Threats to Freedom, editor and author Adam Bellow (Parimatch data security) has assembled an all-star lineup of innovative thinkers to challenge these insidious new threats.
