"The Conservative Mind" at 60


This year marks the 60th anniversary of the publication of Russell Kirk's monumental work, The Conservative Mind: From Burke to Eliot This "founding document" of the American conservative movement grows ever more important amidst the wasteland created by twentieth century liberalism, relativism and other modern heresies.  Russell Kirk points us to "permanent things" and eternal truths that offer hope and a sure way forward to restoring civil society - families, communities and the American republic.

This Heritage Foundation panel recently discussed Kirk's relation to the contemporary conservative movement.
