President Barack Obama with his communitarian guru, Dr. Amitai Etzioni

We are a research website devoted to the emerging supra-national world government:
ACL's Non-Fiction Studies of Communitarianism

Obama's communitarianism was not an "issue" in his 2008 presidential bid.
Besides the fact that McCain and Palin are also both communitarians,
communitarian thinkers know how Americans would vote on his real change:

Individual rights versus community rights is the most ignored topic of the 21st century, and possibly the most important debate in American history. Maybe it's time we all joined in.
Is personal freedom and justice for all outdated?

Cast your vote here! The big Q: Should we eliminate the U.S. Constitution in favor of Communitarian Values?

No Yes Not sure

We are extremely grateful to Jess Blank of the The Web Union, it was her generosity which allowed this website to remain a free public resource for 5 years. Today the ACL website continues as a free resource because of the generosity of a Canadian, Paul Barnes. The ACL receives no grant funding (and the founders do not live on welfare, food stamps or SSI either). We exist mainly on frugal living, sheer willpower, odd jobs and occassional gifts from our readers.

There are several other significant contributors to the ACL who are not in the public eye; while we don't name them, they are extremely important to keeping ACL research free and online. It takes more than two little "nobodies" to present such a massive body of work and this site would not exist without the support and encouragment from so many. To our generous friends in the USA, Australia, New Zealand, England, Canada and Norway, thank you all!

Please feel free to add your financial contribution to continued ACL research!
