AUTHOR OF WORLD WAR IV,
A BRILLIANT AND PROVOCATIVE
EXAMINATION OF A CENTRAL
QUESTION IN AMERICAN
POLITICS AND CULTURE,
ONE THAT IS SURE TO GENERATE
TREMENDOUS CONTROVERSY
(continued fro
m
fr
ont
flap)
There is no more vigorous thinker or skilled
polemicist in American intellectual life than Norman
Podhoretz. In Why Are Jews Liberals? he sums up
his thinking on the political inclinations of his fellow
Jews
—
in the process confounding conventional wis¬
dom and changing the way we view American politics.
Norman Podhoretz says he has never in his entire
life been asked any question on any subject as often
as Why are so many Jews liberals?
—
or, in its more
specifically political form, Why do most Jews always
vote for the Democrats? Podhoretz proposes to solve
this puzzle. He first offers a fascinating account of
anti-Semitism in the West to show why, for most of
that time, Jews quite sensibly concluded that they
had much more to fear from the Right than the Left
But since the Six-Day War of
1967,
he argues, this
position has no longer made sense, and yet most
Jews go on supporting the Democratic Party and the
liberal agenda. Reviewing the history of Jewish politi¬
cal attitudes and thoroughly examining the available
evidence, he then demonstrates that all the usual
explanations
—
such as a passion for justice allegedly
deriving from the prophets of the Hebrew Bible
—
are
either inadequate or flat-out false. Finally, he pro¬
poses his own answer to the great puzzle of why most
Jews remain as committed to liberalism as ever.
NORMAN PODHORETZ, whowas
the editor in chief of Commentary for thirty-five
years, is now an adjunct fellow of the Hudson
Institute and the author of numerous bestselling
books, including Making It, Breaking Ranks,
Ex-Friends, My Love Affair with America, The
Prophets, and World War IV. He holds the Presi¬
dential Medal of Freedom, the nation s highest
civilian honor.
