The Moral Ambiguity of America

In The Moral Ambiguity of America, Goodman clearly reveals his postwar disenchantment with Enlightenment conceptions of science, technology, truth, knowledge, and power relations. This book also provides an insightful look at Goodman's involvement with the student movements of the tumultuous 1960s, and it offers an excellent evaluation of those models of participatory democracy that many groups developed from Goodman's ideas.
