"Why Liberalism Failed" by Patrick J. Deneen presents a critical analysis of liberalism as a political and philosophical framework. Deneen argues that liberalism, while initially promoting individual freedom and progress, ultimately undermines the very values it seeks to uphold, leading to societal fragmentation, inequality, and a loss of community. He contends that the emphasis on individualism and market-driven approaches has created a disconnection from shared values and civic responsibility.

This thought-provoking work invites readers to reflect on the limitations of liberalism and consider alternative paths for fostering a more cohesive and meaningful society.
