Christopher Lasch was an American historian, moralist, and social critic renowned for his work as a history professor at the University of Rochester. He used history to shed light on how major institutions were eroding family and community competence. Lasch’s influential books, including The Culture of Narcissism, received awards and sparked discussions. Initially a neo-Marxist, his political views evolved to blend cultural conservatism with left-leaning critiques of capitalism. He critiqued modern liberalism, stressing the value of drawing lessons from past populist movements.
