"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
"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 & Publisher, The Nation
"Don Guttenplan has written a profoundly subversive book. At a moment when Trumpism, cynicism and corruption seem to reign supreme in our politics, 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 S. Navasky
