Dissent: The Highest Stage of Patriotism

by Peter W. Vakunta

Dissent: The Highest Stage of Patriotism is a treatise on dissent as the acme of love for one’s fatherland. Arguing against the grain, the author avoids smug patriotism; that which manages to make everything about the homeland flawless and beautiful. It is the author’s conviction that the greatness of a nation resides not in citizens’ blind sycophancy, but rather in their willingness to call into question dereliction of duty by political leadership. The goal of this book is to educate global citizens on the quintessence of political vigilance.
