Summary: "The Conscience of a Conservative" by Barry Goldwater is a political and philosophical treatise written in the late 20th century. The work articulates the principles of American Conservatism, emphasizing the need to apply historical conservative values to contemporary political challenges. It explores the relationship between individual freedom, the role of government, and the practical implications of conservative principles. At the start of the book, Goldwater sets the stage by expressing concern over the declining influence of conservative values in American politics, despite a resurgence in public support for these ideals. He reflects on discussions with various segments of society, asserting that many Americans crave a return to conservative principles, yet feel powerless to enact change against prevailing liberal policies. Goldwater lays the groundwork for a detailed exploration of conservatism, arguing that it is fundamentally about preserving individual liberty and the dignity of man, while asserting that the philosophical foundations of conservatism remain relevant regardless of changing societal problems.
