Description: "Dissent was founded in 1954 by intellectuals angered by the rightward drift of the country but uneasy with the dogmatism they saw on the American left, and it has provoked debates about political ideas and about American and global issues ever since. This book - a collection of articles published in Dissent over the past fifty years - presents essays from each decade of Dissent's life that reveal how the magazine viewed that era, along with a foreword to each section written by a contemporary Dissenter who provides perspective on the period."--BOOK JACKET.
