Business, society, and the Reagan revolution.
When Ronald Reagan first came to power two years ago, many Americans believed that his administration would bring about dramatic and fundamental changes in American politics. In this paper, the author contends that although it is still too early to fully assess the effects of "Reaganism" on the country in general, it is not too early to evaluate the results in terms of the altered relationships between government, business, and society. The author goes on to say that the 1982 congressional election results already show that the American people are fast becoming disillusioned with the Reagan administration. In conclusion, the author maintains that only when the U.S. chooses a visionary leader who is capable of defining--or redefining--"progress." will American politics undergo a real revolutionary change.
