I was turned onto Crunchy Cons by a friend, Damon Gibbs. It is an excellent treatise on a phenomenon that seems to be growing throughout American politics. There is a rising group of conservatives that cares more about community than individuality, beauty than profit, simplicy than commercialism.
Rod Dreher lines out several ways that the Crunchy Cons are hoping to live. He links the Crunchy Cons' basic beliefs to a conservatism that is the foundation of modern conservative thought. I am excited about the book, particularly to see the conversation that it starts.
