Arthur Brooks Unveils New Book in CT
Posted on May 18, 2010 in EventsSTAMFORD – The Yankee Institute for Public Policy, Connecticut’s only free market, limited government think tank, is pleased to announce a luncheon with Arthur C. Brooks, the President of the American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research. Brooks will be discussing his latest book.

In his new book, The Battle, Brooks outlines a new culture war—not the old struggle over guns or abortion or religion, but over two competing visions of America.
In one, America continues as a unique and exceptional nation organized around the principles of free enterprise. In the other, America moves toward a European-style social democracy characterized by increasing bureaucracies, income redistribution, and government control of corporations.
These two visions of America are not reconcilable. They represent the starkest of choices for the American people.
The Battle shows that free enterprise is not merely an economic system but an expression of American values and American culture. It makes the case that free enterprise is the system that delivers the greatest levels of prosperity to the greatest numbers of people—and the one that makes possible the highest levels of human flourishing.
The luncheon event will take place at the Stamford Plaza Hotel (2701 Summer Street, Stamford) on June 17, 2010, beginning at 11:30am. Tickets to the event cost $25, which includes lunch. Tickets and a copy of The Battle can be purchased as well for $48.95.
