 kpfa.org/events   \n\nFor decades one of the most farseeing, outspoken 
 public intellectuals in the United States has been Robert B. Reich. Now he 
 provides us with The Common Good, his sixteenth book, a passionate, 
 clear-eyed manifesto urging the recentering of our national economics and 
 politics on the profound idea of the common good. Responding to the 
 prevailing uproar of divisiveness, cynicism and blind self-interest, Reich 
 makes a powerful case for expanding America's moral imagination. Rooting 
 his argument in common sense and everyday reality, he demonstrates that a 
 common good not only exists, but in fact is the very essence of any 
 functional society or notion. Societies, he asserts, undergo varying 
 virtuous cycles that reinforce the common good as well as vicious cycles 
 that undermine It - one of which this country has been experiencing for the 
 past five decades. This can and must be reversed.    \n\nFirst we must 
 weigh the moral obligations of citizenship and carefully consider how as a 
 country we should relate to honor, shame, patriotism, truth and the meaning 
 of leadership.\nThis is a heartfelt statement from a major political 
 thinker devoted to saving America's soul.  \n\nRobert B. Reich is 
 Chancellor's Professor of Public Policy at the Goldman School of Public 
 Policy at the University of California, Berkeley. He has served in three 
 national administrations and has written fifteen books, including The Work 
 of Nations, Saving Capitalism and Locked In the Cabinet. His essays have 
 appeared in The New Yorker, The Atlantic, The New York Times, The 
 Washington Post, and The Wall Street Journal. He is currently chair of the 
 national governing board of Common Cause.\n\n$12 advance, $15 door.\n
