In his new book, Fred Siegel rewrites the history of modern American liberalism. He posits that what we think of liberalism today began not with Progressivism or the New Deal but rather in the wake of the post-WWI disillusionment with American society. In the 1920s, the first writers and thinkers to call themselves liberals adopted the hostility to bourgeois life that had long characterized European intellectuals of both the left and the right. The aim of liberalism’s foundational writers and thinkers was to create an American aristocracy of sorts, to provide a sense of hierarchy and order associated with European statism.
