Abstract

john B. judis is a senior editor at The New Republic, where he is working since 1982. He graduated at the University of California at Berkeley in 1965 and taught philosophy there later on. He was an active leftist activist during the 60es and founded the leftwing journal The Socialist Revolution in 1969. In his book The paradox of american democracy, Elites, Special Interests, and the Betrayal of Public Trust, judis focuses principally on how conservative forces succeeded in gaining power, through the establishment of interest groups and right-wing foundations. He cultivates a sort of nostalgia for the years in which progressive movements began to emerge before being counterattacked by the business-classes.
