...but is it dying?
...the cultural liberalism that emerged from the convulsions of the 1960s drove the liberal faith out of the mainstream. Its fundamental value is that society should have no fundamental values, except for a pervasive relativism that sees all values as equal.

Complaints about "imposing" values were also popular then, aimed at teachers and parents who worked to socialize children.Posted by marybeth at February 27, 2005 12:35 PM Politics
