The conservatarian manifesto : libertarians, conservatives, and the fight for the Right's future / Charles C.W. Cooke.

Summary:

"A call to arms for the growing movement of 'Conservatarians'--members of the right who are fiscally conservative but socially liberal--and a ... look at conservatism's past and future. There is an underserved movement budding among conservatives, in which fiscal responsibility, constitutional obedience, and controlled government spending remain crucial tenets, but issues like gay marriage and drug control are approached with a libertarian bent. In [this book], Charles C.W. Cooke engages with the data and the philosophy behind this movement, applauding conservatarianism as a force that can help Republicans mend the many ills that have plagued their party in recent years"-- Provided by publisher.
