Lecturer in Political Science Gregory Collins has an article on the National Review website entitled “The Moderation We Need.”
Abstract:
Like a captain steadying a ship in turbulent waters, moderation in Aurelian Craiutu’s judgment is necessary today to temper the heated extremes of the radical Left and radical Right in American politics. In Why Not Moderation?, Craiutu, a professor of political science at Indiana University Bloomington, furnishes a distinctive and earnest defense of this concept, framing it as a “strong and muscular virtue” in an age of political radicalism. Yet his argument leaves the reader desiring further clarity on its guiding principles.
