TAC Symposium: What is Left? What is Right?What is Left? What is Right? Does it Matter? Since its inception, The American Conservative has been dealing with questions of what Right and Left mean in the modern context and to what extent the terms even apply anymore. Commentary memorably took up similar issues in a 1976 symposium, and, 30 years later, in a time of renewed ideological flux, we think a reconsideration is in order. In the interest of hosting a lively discussion, we chose contributors from across the political spectrum and asked for their thoughts on the following questions: 1. Are the designations “liberal” and “conservative” still useful? Why or why not? 2. Does a binary Left/Right political spectrum describe the full range of ideological options? Is it still applicable? Not all of these authors share TAC’s editorial orientation, but we believe there is wisdom in the council of many, and each was chosen as representative of a particular perspective. We leave our readers to decide which insights most accord with their own. Posted by Svyatoslav Igorevich on Thursday, August 10, 2006 at 06:21 PM in Conservatism, Liberalism & the Left Comments:2

Until we can be rid of the Ideological gastric Re- Flux, then cohesion will be difficult to regain, if indeed it is at all possible to regain; it may well have gone too far and can not be undone, Europe unfortunately is evidence of that Hypothesis, where it is only a short duration to its total disintegration. And the vast number of the ex- European nations are testimonial to that just through demographic shifts whilst the natives are dripping in Ideological gastric- Reflux and rapid fundament deployment.( Just droped a load in their undies and their Nests)
