![]() | Freedom''s Orphans Has contemporary liberalism's devotion to individual liberty come at the expense of our society's obligations to children? Divorce is now easy to obtain, and access to everything from violent movies to sexually explicit material is zealously protected as freedom of speech. But what of the effects on the young, with their special needs and vulnerabilities? Freedom's Orphans seeks a way out of this predicament. Poised to ignite fierce debate within and beyond academia, it documents the increasing indifference of liberal theorists and jurists to what were long deemed core elements of children's welfare. David L. Tubbs is a fellow of the Witherspoon Institute and assistant professor of politics at King's College in New York City. He is former associate editor of the American Journal of Jurisprudence . |
