He is our Everyman, he is us."-Seattle Post-Intelligencer Praise for Tom Hayden: "One comes away enthralled by Hayden's odyssey."-The Boston Sunday Globe From his earliest days as a Freedom Rider and leader of Students for a Democratic Society, through decades as a state senator, to contemporary notes on the Iraq war, the global South, immigration, and spirituality, Tom Hayden's writings constitute nothing less than an alternative history of our times. Writings for a Democratic Society is the only book that encapsulates Tom Hayden's writings over fifty years, a time in which he has been a reflective eyewitness to American history in the making. The book is composed on sections about the new Left of the 1960s, the Chicago 8, Vietnam, electoral politics, gang violence, Ireland, the environment, global justice, and US foreign policy today. "Tom Hayden changed America," the national correspondent of The Atlantic, Nicholas Lemann, has written. He created the "blueprint for the Great Society programs," according to presidential assistant Richard Goodwin. He was the "single greatest figure of the 1960s student movement," according to The New York Times Book Review. Forty years later he was described as "the conscience of the Senate." Tom Hayden is the author or editor of more than a dozen critically acclaimed books, including Reunion and Street Wars. 3136810 1 1 2008 Writings for a Democratic Society: The Tom Hayden Reader total:4|5:2|4:2| 4 18 16 1 5 0 false false Wed May 28 14:24:54 -0700 2008 Wed Jun 18 19:43:38 -0700 2008 Richard Flacks on Tom Hayden at Truthdig.com]]> 0 0 false false Thu May 21 06:24:06 -0700 2009 Thu May 21 06:24:06 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun May 03 22:57:24 -0700 2009 Sun May 03 22:57:24 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Feb 24 12:31:36 -0800 2009 Tue Feb 24 12:31:36 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Sun Oct 26 17:51:05 -0700 2008 Sun Oct 26 17:51:09 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Thu Feb 05 17:15:04 -0800 2009 Sat Sep 13 15:53:18 -0700 2008 Thu Feb 05 17:15:04 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Wed Sep 10 18:46:44 -0700 2008 Wed Sep 10 18:46:44 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Aug 28 07:09:51 -0700 2008 Thu Aug 28 07:09:51 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Sun Jun 29 13:23:58 -0700 2008 Sun Jun 29 13:23:58 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Wed Jun 25 14:47:47 -0700 2008 Wed Jun 25 14:47:47 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri Jun 13 08:06:53 -0700 2008 Fri Jun 13 08:06:53 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Fri Jun 13 07:25:05 -0700 2008 Fri Jun 13 07:25:05 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Tue Apr 29 03:48:48 -0700 2008 Tue Apr 29 03:48:48 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Apr 27 16:24:05 -0700 2008 Sun Apr 27 16:24:15 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Apr 17 19:57:05 -0700 2008 Thu Apr 17 19:57:14 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Thu Mar 27 14:22:33 -0700 2008 Thu Mar 27 14:22:33 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=3105564
