How 'Modern' is Republicanism ?

Spivack, Robert C. | June 18, 1960 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on changing vision of the Republican party of the U.S. with changing times. A transformation of considerable magnitude is taking place within the party. As recently as the mid-50, the GOP began to turn cautiously, in a new direction. The year 1956 became known as the age of Arthur Larson, the chief spokesperson of the party. Now in 1960, Barry Goldwater is the chief literary spokesman of the Republican Party. The shift from Larson to Goldwater gives some idea of what has happened to the Republican Party.
