"It's high time that someone resurrected authentic 'populism,' activism from below, and showed how it can be the path to a better future. That's done very convincingly in D.D. Guttenplan's fine book, The Next Republic: The Rise of a New Radical Majority, introducing us along the way to some wonderful people and their achievements, interspersed with carefully executed and pertinent historical interludes. A timely and instructive call to action." --Noam Chomsky
"Don Guttenplan has written a profoundly subversive book. He briefly touches base with a few notable progressives (like the Bern and Zephyr Teachout), but at a moment when Trumpism, cynicism, and corruption seem to reign supreme in our politics--in the modest guise of a report on the battles of a series of quasi-anonymous, persistent anti-establishmentarians and political loners--he has made a compelling case for hope and optimism about the future of our democracy, and en passant he has put the meaning of our republic in its historical context." --Victor Navasky, publisher emeritus of The Nation
"At a moment when history and truth are under attack, and the survival of our republic is once again in doubt, The Next Republic is a timely, humane, and forceful narrative of our insurgent political moment--and a deeply reported contribution to the fight for a progressive future in America." --Katrina vanden Heuvel, editor and publisher, The Nation
