Description
In his preface to this reissue of the 1990 book, Challenging the Boundaries of Reform, W. J. Conroy reflects at the latest legacy of Sanders, his Agenda for The united states, and his appeal to young voters. His book then looks back to identify Sanders’ experience in Burlington by examining several case studies that unfolded amidst a conservative trend nationally, an unsympathetic state government, and a hostile city council.
In the long run, Conroy asks what lessons can also be drawn from the case of Burlington that would aid the American left in its struggle to capture both government and civil society?
