Conversations with David Blankenhorn

Society & Culture


David and Linda agree on the need for a New Marriage Conversation that tackles inequality head on – and disagree about a few other things. Amy draws out the broad range of interests and insights in Linda's latest collaboration. In this edited conversation we get the best of Linda - first as a public intellectual engaged in civil discourse with David Blankenhorn and then as a teacher helping Amy Ziettlow better understand the chorus of voices and viewpoints in the contemporary discussions about parenthood. Linda C. McClain is a professor of law at Boston University, widely acclaimed for her work in family law and feminist legal theory. She co-edited, with Daniel Cere, "What Is Parenthood". Her latest book, co-authored with her husband James E. Fleming, is a deep engagement with political theory and moral philosophy entitled "Ordered Liberty: Rights, Responsibilities, and Virtues" Watch the video of the complete unedited conversation: http://www.americanvalues.org/search/item.php?id=1988 Subscribe to our YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/InstAmericanValues
