"Strangers" chronicles the manner in which critics have depicted American policy intellectuals, social service professionals and secular ideologues as 21st century strangers, shadowy cultural renegades or privileged insiders and elites. The book places suspicion of the guardian class in full historical context by focusing on the cultural values, political concerns, economic interests and specific grievances of those opposing them. By re-examining the complex relationship between anti-intellectualism, anti-elitism and social class, Horowitz offers fresh insight on the tension between the Progressive era and the 1990s.
