Among politicians of national stature, there is today perhaps none more respected as a principled conservative than Senator Rick Sanctorum (R, PA). In It Takes a Family: Conservatism and the Common Good, his first book, Senator Sanctorum elaborates the humane civic vision that he believes must inform a truly civic, community-oriented conservative public policy if it is to be effective and just. Senator Sanctorum argues that the genuine conservative is animated by a sense of stewardship for an inheritance. Throughout his book, Sanctorum emphasizes the central role of the family – in contradistinction to the abstract “village” of the centralized state, as promoted by Senator Hillary Clinton – in achieving the common good. A major contribution to contemporary political debate, It Takes a Family further establishes Senator Sanctorum’s credentials as one of our most thoughtful public figures.
