Summary: Is American progress stalling? "Why Nothing Works" explores why it feels like government can no longer solve big problems. Delving into the history of progressivism, Dunkelman reveals a crucial schism between two conflicting impulses: the desire for centralized authority to solve societal problems and a deep-seated aversion to power. Discover how this internal battle has led to political gridlock and what it means for the future of progress. This book is a must-read for anyone frustrated with the state of American governance and searching for a path forward. It argues that solutions are within reach if reformers allow power to flow to responsible public officials.
