When the Stranger Becomes the Scourge: Lessons for Localists from <em>Wuthering Heights</em>

In a fragmented age increasingly seduced by the cult of the self, "Wuthering Heights" challenges us to reclaim the difficult virtues that make real community possible.Read Article

Markets, Slop, and Alyosha

“God Remembers in Our Dementia.” Jen Pollock Michel describes what she’s learned while caring for her aging mother: “Dementia, at the very least, reminds us of what it means to be human. We are fragile, finite creatures. We cannot self-exist or self-sustain. We depend on God for our very lives, but we are also deeply dependent on each other to offer the companionship and care that helps us both live and die.” “How to Build the Perfect City.” Chr…Artificial Intelligence · Tulsa Read Article

The Front Porch Republic Curse?

Is there such a thing as the Front Porch Republic curse? If, like me, you are a devotee of an athletic team with a long-suffering fan base (in my case, the football program at my beloved alma mater Notre Dame), you are probably familiar with the concept of the “Sports Illustrated cover jinx.” For those fortunate enough not to have been subjected to its cruelties, the essential idea is as follows. A team or individual athlete begins to enjoy some…New Haven, Connecticut · New Haven Read Article

The Localist at the Capitol: A Conversation with Marie Glusenkamp Perez

When a member of Congress recites a Wendell Berry poem on the fly, a man can be forgiven for dropping his guard. He can also be forgiven for wondering what kind of madness made her go to Washington. I didn’t know anything about Marie Glusenkamp Perez, a Democrat who represents Washington State’s 3rd District, until I read Evelyn Quartz’ essay in Compact on her “quiet radicalism” (which I recommend). Often labeled by journalists as a “moderate” o…Washington State · Washington Read Article

Of Furniture and Formation

As one should do when visiting Oxford, I’ve been spending some time in ancient English churches and college chapels. As British historian Nicholas Orme points out in his Going To Church in Medieval England (Yale, 2021) churchgoing as a religious and social activity here goes back at least to 313 AD when Emperor Constantine recognized Christianity as a lawful religion and allowed Christians to have public places of worship. Much of everyday life …Oxford, England · Oxford Read Article

Pints, Children, and Libraries

“Food Is Not Magic.” Garth Brown probes the oddities that ensue when people conscript food into an ideological project: “Contradictions and superficiality do not discredit the claim that the modern food system is dysfunctional. Given the ever-increasing burden of chronic disease on the health care system and on the quality of the citizen’s lives, the only surprise should be that it has taken so long for food to become this much of a political is…United States · United States Read Article

The Times Can’t Tell Us What We Should Do

I was watching an episode of Blue Bloods the other day, that long-running police show starring Tom Selleck as Police Commissioner Frank Reagan. In that episode, Frank was talking to his friend, the archbishop of New York. He informed the archbishop that the Catholic Church had “fallen behind the times” on the topic of homosexual conduct. In a very similar but real incident, an angry name-caller on informed me that I am a “homophobe” because I di…New York City · New York Read Article

What We Lose When We Lost the Plot

“Might I,” said Mary, “have a bit of earth?” It’s one of the most quietly revolutionary questions in children’s literature. When Mary Lennox asks for a bit of earth in The Secret Garden, she’s not demanding wealth, or freedom, or even love. She asks for something older and humbler: a patch of ground to call her own, to tend and watch, to know by the shape of its weeds and the smell of its soil. She asks to belong. Once, we all had—or at least …United States · United States Read Article

Charisma in America: A Review of <em>Spellbound</em>

It is difficult to escape charisma in American life. Media outlets tout stories of individuals with a seemingly hypnotic sway over their followers. Social Media influencers seek to gain followers and capitalize economically on personal allure and charm. In recent history, “rizz” (an abbreviation of charisma) was the 2023 word of the year. Yet, the essence of charisma seems elusive as it has been leveraged from both good and bad actors alike in l…United States · United States Read Article
