In times of crisis, we are forced to re-examine our ways and ponder our future. It is in this framework that we need to consider our present economic plight and the charting of our path forward. In his penetrating analysis of contemporary society, author John Horvat focuses on the present crisis with great insight and clarity. He claims the modern economy has become cold, impersonal, and out of balance. Gone are the human elements of honor and trust so essential to our daily lives. Society has discarded the natural restraining influence of human institutions and values that should temper our economic activities. Return to Order is a clarion call that invites us to reconnect with those institutions and values by applying the timeless principles of an organic Christian order. Horvat presents a refreshing picture of this order that is wonderfully adapted to our human nature. He describes the calming influence of those natural regulating institutions such as custom, family, community, the Christian state, and the Church. A return to order is not only possible, but crucial. Horvat shows us how to make it happen. Based on nearly 20 years of ground-breaking research, this book is being recognized as one of the most important and influential on the subject to be published in the past 10 years. Its original insight into both the present crisis and remedies for the future thrust Return to Order into the center of the raging debate over how to restore America's prominence as a proud and great nation.
