Nathan Schlueter

Nathan Schlueter, a professor of Philosophy and Religion at Hillsdale College, dives into the stark contrasts between the American and French revolutions. He discusses how differing ideologies have shaped modern political landscapes and the critiques emerging from both sides of the political spectrum. Schlueter emphasizes the importance of statesmanship and education in upholding virtues necessary for governance, while also reflecting on the radical legacy of the French Revolution and its implications for contemporary society.

Nikolai Wenzel, an economist focused on conservative/libertarian debates, and Nathan W. Schlueter, a political philosopher defending classical liberalism, discuss fusionism's aim to reconcile liberty and virtue. They trace its Cold War roots, debate immigration, family and the administrative state, and explore whether classical thinkers still provide common ground for a fractured right.
