Mark Richardson on Civic Nationalism
Part 1 (See also his chapter on nation and ethny.)
In a comment he writes:
Can there be long-lasting assimilation without a significant rate of intermarriage between members of the "majority" and the immigrant "minority"?
In a comment he writes:
A people is not just a culture. There are Americans who think that all that matters is if the Anglo or Euro culture survives - it doesn't matter if actual Anglos/Euros disappear from view.
This assumes, first, that you can have a culture minus the people who created it.
Can there be long-lasting assimilation without a significant rate of intermarriage between members of the "majority" and the immigrant "minority"?
With the addition of Noah Millman's blog to The American Conservative, Rod Dreher asks the question that may have been on the minds of some TAC readers: Has TAC gone liberal? (Millman used to be at The American Scene.) Is this supposed to give TAC greater credibility as being "open-minded" among those not associated with any form of conservatism? Rod Dreher writes: "To the extent that in Noah, we have a thoughtful critic of conservatism, one who understands and respects conservatism, even though he doesn’t share all our values, it can only make us more thoughtful and, ultimately, more persuasive." Maybe MacIntyre would appreciate that sort of defense. If this were a discussion of what is prudentially best by those with authority, I could understand why differing opinions might be needed. But TAC should be devoted first to the defense of American laws and customs in so far as they instantiate natural law precepts. Not everything can be put up for debate.
We can't pretend that any sort of discussion at a website with a rather limited readership will lead to some sort of political change. The progressive usurpers who like to troll the website for their amusement or to demonstrate their moral superiority remain unpersuaded; what basis do we have for thinking that other committed idealogues will have a moral conversion by reading the website, if they even bother to do so? "Read TAC because we now have Noah Millman writing for us!"
For the dissemination of tradition and to articulate a defense of that tradition, that is the limit to what most conservative websites (e.g. Chronicles) can aspire intellectually. These websites can also provide a place for like-minded people to meet and converse, and diminish some of that loneliness we may feel. But in the end we have to turn our attention to our role and duties, rather than mobilizing opinion on the internet in hope of enacting wide-scale change. Rather, we must form and conslidate real relationships if we are to effect change.
I haven't seen anything by Daniel McCarthy on the new addition.

Lunar New Year's dinner at New Port tonight, as my mother will be going out of town to visit family members and KK and her family will be leaving later next week for vacation in HK. While I was there I saw that one of the TVs in the restaurant had CNN coverage of Newt Gingrich's campaign. I wasn't sure what the reason was, though the coverage did last a long time, and the anchors even talked a bit with his daughters. Turns out he won SC so the coverage was probably of his victory speech. The results will give some semblance that the nomination is still in play, but it is inevitable that the Grand Oligarchy Party will nominate someone unsatisfactory to traditional conservatives.

Innovation in the name of plurality?
Rorate Caeli: Neocatechumenal Rite approved?
Let us call it the New Liturgical Way
"How can we prevent the work of the Holy Spirit?"
The traditionalists and conservatives got Summorum Pontificum and the Anglican Ordinariate, so why can't liturgies at the other "extreme" be sanctioned, so that all may be appeased? This goes beyond Pius V, who at least allowed for the maintenance of rites that had been in existence for over 2 centuries. Maybe a more firm critique of ecclesial movements has to be written, in order to rid ourselves of the dangerous notion that because the Holy Spirit is at work we must approve of all that results. After all, isn't it too early to judge the fruits of the movement? Increase in membership and "vocations" aren't sufficient in themselves. Remember the dangers of cults?

It so happens that I don’t own or drive a car, and indeed I never have. Among its other benefits, that’s a good way to see the limits on the alleged freedom of choice that the consumer economy provides its inmates. In today’s America, you can live without a car, but most other choices you make are going to be sharply curtailed by that decision. When my wife and I decided a few years back to leave the west coast and settle in the Rust Belt, scores of pleasant towns we might otherwise have chosen were ruled out in advance because the only way to go from there to anywhere else was to drive a car, and our options for buying a house were just as tightly constrained by the need to be within walking distance of groceries and other necessary services. All those choices the propagandists of the consumer economy prattle about? They exist, but only if you give up your right to make any of the decisions that matter.

Democracy and Coercion
In the state of fallen nature, governing may require coercing, the threat of punishment, but to govern is merely to order the community with respect to the common good. I am not sure about how good the essay is; certainly it doesn't address Mr. Carter's presuppositions about the ordering of the economy. Mr. Carter attributes wrongly his freedom to choose and pursue a certain lifestyle to liberalism, when it is actually due to the type of economy that we have and his relative wealth. Liberalism may be used to defend the marriage of ["democratic"] government and big business, but it is not the cause.
I don't think much progress will be made with respect to convincing Mr. Carter.
As I mentioned in a comment on Mr. Salyer’s article, to govern simply means to coerce, in some form or other. This is just a definitional truth.

Mutually Dependent
I think Alasdair MacIntyre would be pleased:To Build Community, an Economy of Gifts by Charles Eisenstein- For a multitude of reasons, we need to need each other. (EB)
I think this is off:
Community was lost as a result of cultural priorities manifested in individual choices and economic and political pressures. The use of money may foster a psychological blindness to our need for others, that is true, as well as a false sense of self-sufficiency. Getting rid of money in our economic exchanges may force us to evaluate how we can be useful to one another, that is true. As a community-building exercise, its usefulness is rather limited. Of course, progressive liberals presume that everyone else is the right-thinking sort, and that there are no big obstacles to community. We just need to be forced to interact with one another, and everything will turn out fine.
The diffusion of the good -- first of all in our desires and choices and through them, the passing on of our actions and material things. This is a more holistic vision of communal life with which the wise and Catholics can agree and have built upon in their teachings. After all, the diffusion of the good is proper to love.
Recognizing our dependence and reliance upon on another for satisfying certain material needs is important, but it is not as important having a common vision of [communal] life which is necessary for solidarity (along with identity, a common culture, and so on). A community is a group of people who want to live with one another, not just because they depend on each other but also because they desire to live with them. Commercial relationships or friendships are important, but they are not the same as civic friendship (the mistaken opinion of liberals reading Aristotle).
The community-building exercises do sound hokey and rather forced. Should we not be expressing gratitude to one another in our exchanges? Moreover, there is a danger inherent to turning generosity and gratitude into a spectacle - it can become an occasion for competition and vice. Finally, we need to realize that each person is a gift to the community (as well as the role he exercises), with the ultimate source of good being God. Another sentimental version of secular humanism (or some alternate spirituality) will be inadequate to deal with the reality of sin and human imperfection (especially with the devil and his ilk seeking to trip people up).

I think this is off:
More directly posed: community is nearly impossible in a highly monetized society like our own. That is because community is woven from gifts, which is ultimately why poor people often have stronger communities than rich people. If you are financially independent, then you really don't depend on your neighbors—or indeed on any specific person—for anything. You can just pay someone to do it, or pay someone else to do it.
Community was lost as a result of cultural priorities manifested in individual choices and economic and political pressures.

Of course, progressive liberals presume that everyone else is the right-thinking sort, and that there are no big obstacles to community. We just need to be forced to interact with one another, and everything will turn out fine.
Community is woven from gifts. Unlike today's market system, whose built-in scarcity compels competition in which more for me is less for you, in a gift economy the opposite holds. Because people in gift culture pass on their surplus rather than accumulating it, your good fortune is my good fortune: more for you is more for me. Wealth circulates, gravitating toward the greatest need. In a gift community, people know that their gifts will eventually come back to them, albeit often in a new form. Such a community might be called a "circle of the gift."
Fortunately, the monetization of life has reached its peak in our time, and is beginning a long and permanent receding (of which economic "recession" is an aspect). Both out of desire and necessity, we are poised at a critical moment of opportunity to reclaim gift culture, and therefore to build true community. The reclamation is part of a larger shift of human consciousness, a larger reunion with nature, earth, each other, and lost parts of ourselves. Our alienation from gift culture is an aberration and our independence an illusion. We are not actually independent or "financially secure" – we are just as dependent as before, only on strangers and impersonal institutions, and, as we are likely to soon discover, these institutions are quite fragile.
The diffusion of the good -- first of all in our desires and choices and through them, the passing on of our actions and material things. This is a more holistic vision of communal life with which the wise and Catholics can agree and have built upon in their teachings. After all, the diffusion of the good is proper to love.

A community is a group of people who want to live with one another, not just because they depend on each other but also because they desire to live with them. Commercial relationships or friendships are important, but they are not the same as civic friendship (the mistaken opinion of liberals reading Aristotle).
Finally, the circle can do a third round in which people express gratitude for the things they received since the last meeting. This round is extremely important because in community, the witnessing of others' generosity inspires generosity in those who witness it. It confirms that this group is giving to each other, that gifts are recognized, and that my own gifts will be recognized, appreciated, and reciprocated as well.
The community-building exercises do sound hokey and rather forced. Should we not be expressing gratitude to one another in our exchanges? Moreover, there is a danger inherent to turning generosity and gratitude into a spectacle - it can become an occasion for competition and vice.

Matthew Schmitz, Who Gets to Use MLK’s Legacy?
Some use his authority to persuade others on questions like abortion. But it goes beyond that, when they accept his civil rights activism as the correct means for dealing with the problem of racism and injustice and see in him someone to admire and emulate. It is one thing to let non-Catholics have their heroes and figures; it is another to embrace those heroes and figures as one's own, even if only to try to facilitate dialogue and to be able to better identify with them. Maybe the division between groups is so great that this sort of cultural appeasement is necessary. But will it be successful in the long run? There are plenty who say the right things on race and engage in other PC grandstanding, but nonetheless will not accept "ractial integration" for themselves or their families. Can national myths and exaggerated sense of identity ever be wiped away, so that people can begin anew and deal with others as they are?
