Books Death of the liberal class

. 

The book examines the failure of the liberal class to confront the rise of the corporate state. Hedges argues that the traditional pillars of the liberal establishment—including the press, universities, and the Democratic Party—have collapsed or become co-opted by corporate interests, losing their ability to serve as a defense against the excesses of power. The work is a critical analysis of how liberalism has supported unfettered capitalism and the national security state.
