Description
Targeting core tenets of the Tea Party movement, including political economy and economic history, Samuel Gregg makes the case for a new breed of conservative—the Tea Party Catholic. Long married to the conventional liberal ideologies of the past, American Catholics were largely wed to the political image of John F. Kennedy. Increasingly however, as Gregg declares, an ever-growing number of practicing Catholics have gravitated to the conservative side of American politics since the 1970s. Adding his voice to the popular chorus of conservative Catholics—which include his contemporary bestselling authors Michael Novak and Robert Sirico—Gregg examines the economic and social positions of the United States and defines where the Catholic Church falls on a host of issues, including a free-market economy, the welfare state, the role and size of government, and the very definition of liberty and freedom.
