U.S. Politics As Tragedy

By Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr. "My subject . . . is politics for a time of crisis; the real, no longer postponeable political issues facing our nation's approach to the 2004 general election today. That subject is one which could never be understood competently, except from the vantage-point of a deep insight into the essential role of Classical art in the education of the modern statesman. The contemporary, even urgent relevance of these references to Shakespeare, will be emphasized in the course of . . . this report."
