Matthew Spalding, Director of the B. Kenneth Simon Center for American Studies at The Heritage Foundation, will provide a speech entitled "Realigning American Politics: Do We Still Hold These Truths?"
Spalding, a constitutional scholar and authority on American political thought and religious liberty, also serves as project leader of Heritage’s First Principles initiative. The Center for American Studies sponsors lectures, organizes seminars, crafts publications and supports the work of scholars. Its mission is to teach policymakers and political leaders about the principles of our political tradition and to explain the continued relevance and application of those principles in 21st-century America.
In his latest book, We Still Hold These Truths: Rediscovering Our Principles, Reclaiming Our Future (ISI Books, 2009), Spalding details America’s core principles, shows how they have come under assault by modern progressive-liberalism and lays out a strategy to recover them.
