  • 1 Politics After Babel: Reinhold Niebuhr, Michael Oakeshott, And
    Politics after Babel: Reinhold Niebuhr, Michael Oakeshott, and the Theological Defense of Modernity Matthew Sitman University of Virginia Therefore is the name of the place called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of the earth… Genesis 11: 9 What has anyone achieved in words when he speaks about you? Yet woe to those who are silent about you because, though loquacious with verbosity, they have nothing to say. -- Augustine, Confessions I. Introduction: The Prophet and the Philosopher Merely juxtaposing basic descriptions of Reinhold Niebuhr and Michael Oakeshott – their biographies, temperaments, and writings – calls attention to their incongruities. The former was from the American Midwest, the son of German immigrants, a brooding pastor and theologian, a man of the left and prominent public figure; the latter was British, a cheerful romantic, an idiosyncratic conservative, and enough of a quiet academic that, during his funeral, the local priest officiating at the service forgot his name. 1 Niebuhr wrote with the urgency of the prophet, and even his most sustained and nuanced work retains a sense of impending disaster. When he appeared on the cover of Time magazine in 1948, his portrait was set against a background of dark, swirling clouds, with a small, white cross barely visible over his left 1 For a useful, if somewhat stilted, biography of Niebuhr, see Richard Wightman Fox’s Reinhold Niebuhr: A Biography (Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1996).

  • In Memoriam WILSON CAREY Mcwilliams (1933-2005)
    In Memoriam WILSON CAREY McWILLIAMS https://www.cambridge.org/core/terms (1933-2005) Wilson Carey McWilliams, Professor of Political Science at Rutgers University and editorial board member of this journal, died on March 29, 2005. Though his interests and writing spanned the field of political science, McWilliams had a particular ear for the music of American political life, and it was to articulating the notes of that song that he dedicated most of his energy. His first major work, The Idea of Fraternity in America (1973), for which he was awarded the National Historical Society Prize, sounded the themes that would become his refrain. In American political history, modern liberal theory, with its basic , subject to the Cambridge Core terms of use, available at assumptions of human individualism, has become ever more ascendant. Modern liberalism teaches that fraternity is an as- yet unachieved end of politics, one that can be realized with the dissolution of all particular ties among particular people in communities. This teaching undermines the ancient theory 01 Oct 2021 at 19:08:32 that it is only through those particular bonds and relations that , on an individual can truly be formed, and that even well-formed individuals can never transcend their firm locations in particular settings. That ancient theory has had a voice in an "alternative" American tradition, emanating particularly from those ethnic and 170.106.202.226 religious communities that remained relatively cohesive in the years following immigration. But that voice has begun to falter. The assault on fraternity by modern philosophy—in the name .
