The New York Times-bestselling tour de force on the history, rights and responsibilities of modern citizenship and the forces that are undermining it in America today (Rep. Devin Nunes)

A New York Times bestseller, The Dying Citizen is essential reading for any American who cares about the fate of our nation (Mark R. Levin)Human history is full of the stories of peasants, subjects, and tribes. Yet the concept of the citizen is historically rare and was among America s most valued ideals for over two centuries. But without shock treatment, warns Victor Davis Hanson, American citizenship may soon vanish.In The Dying Citizen, Hanson outlines the forces that led to this crisis. The evisceration of the middle class has made many Americans dependent on the federal government. Open borders have undermined allegiance to a particular place. Identity politics have eradicated our collective sense of self. And a top-heavy state has endangered personal liberty.With a new epilogue that assesses how the events of 2021 have further diminished the meaning of American citizenship, The Dying Citizen is a clarion call to rebuild our collective national identity.
