Walzer’s Razor
Submitted by Steven F. Hayward, Ph.D on 3.22.2002
Fifty years ago a few of the leading intellectuals on the left, such as Lionel Trilling and Dwight MacDonald, began to perceive growing weaknesses in the dominant liberal ideology of the time, and began to look hopefully for the emergence of a reasonable, responsible conservatism. Today, the shoe is on the other foot, as conservatives wonder whether a reasonable, responsible left is possible.

Women and Entrepreneurship in California: Obstacles, Incentives and Reforms
Submitted by Donna G. Matias on 3.1.2002
Back in 1928, the author George Bernard Shaw published a handbook for a citizen who had, just recently, gained the right to vote in America—the little housewife. The book’s title was The Intelligent Woman’s Guide to Socialism and Capitalism, and it tilted heavily toward the socialist side. Shaw’s political framework now seems antiquated—his aim was to “make Socialism the established constitutional order.” But what strikes the modern reader most is not Shaw’s politics but his condescending tone.
