Abstract
During her 30-minute lecture, Judge Brown discussed why the United States, as a nation, lacks the civilizational competence of earlier eras and questioned whether freedom can flourish in an age of uncertainty. “We are so immersed in our culture, so insensibly responsive to the spirit of our own times, that we neither perceive the way it unconsciously shapes our attitudes and own beliefs nor have the ability to gain an objective perceptive,” she said.
