Rosenblum in Membership and Morals has produced a powerful argument that the worriers have got it wrong--or at least they have chosen the wrong things to worry about... Part of the attractiveness of her thesis is that it purports to cut across the usual lines of political battle... The bulk of her book is made up of an impressive survey of the hard cases of social affiliation ... and her defense in every case of the rights of people in a democratic society to associate with those of like mind and belief."--James Bowman, The Times Literary Supplement "Political theory, moral philosophy, and constitutional law desperately require a rigorous analysis of the role associations ought to play in sustaining good society. Such an analysis is precisely Nancy Rosenblum's great accomplishment."--Alan Wolfe, The New Republic "Membership and Morals is a thoughtful, challenging, and carefully nuanced book that should be read by all serious scholars of civil society."--Claire Morgan, The Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science
