Hubert H. Humphrey 
The Political Philosophy of the New Deal 

Supporto

Brought up on Wilsonian democracy and populist ideals, a young Hubert Humphrey witnessed the near-failure of the American political system during the Great Depression and its revival under Franklin D. Roosevelt. In The Political Philosophy of the New Deal, Humphrey responds to the changing political landscape of his early adulthood and offers a broad-ranging analysis of the New Deal and its place in the American traditions of individualism and social responsibility. First published in 1970, Humphrey’s book makes the case that the New Deal, by emphasizing stability for all citizens, situated itself firmly within the traditions of American democracy. His cogent assessment of Roosevelt’s policies offers insights still applicable in current-day discourse about the financial and social sectors within the United States.
This paperback edition includes a new foreword by Robert Mann, who explains the enduring importance of Humphrey’s work and makes a strong case for the relevance of Humphrey’s ideas in today’s political climate.
