American Covenant

How the Constitution Unified Our Nation—and Could Again
Book • 2024
In 'American Covenant,' Yuval Levin argues that the U.S.

Constitution is not the source of contemporary political discord but rather the solution.

The book blends historical analysis with practical insights, highlighting the framers’ sophisticated understanding of political division and the Constitution’s power to facilitate constructive disagreement and forge unity.

Levin provides a hopeful and insightful perspective, rooted in American political tradition, and offers practical solutions for reforming aspects of the constitutional order that have malfunctioned.
