 src=meetup\n\nNew Deal Law and Order: How the War on Crime Built the Moder
 n Liberal State by Anthony Gregory\, 2024\, 491 pages\n\nMost Americans re
 member the New Deal as the crucible of modern liberalism. But while it is 
 most closely associated with Roosevelt’s efforts to end the Depression a
 nd provide social security for the elderly\, we have failed to acknowledge
  one of its most enduring legacies: its war on crime. Crime policy\, Antho
 ny Gregory argues\, was a defining feature of the New Deal. Tough-on-crime
  policies provided both the philosophical underpinnings and the institutio
 nal legitimacy necessary to remake the American state.\n\nAbout CPL Book C
 lub:\n\nThis monthly gathering's mission is simple: to explore profound op
 inions\nand accounts of our nation’s and the world’s most critical iss
 ues\nthrough in-depth books. But it’s not just about reading - it’s ab
 out\nembracing diverse perspectives\, sparking discussions\, and sharing\n
 thoughts with fellow explorers of knowledge.\n\nWhat you’ll get out of b
 ook club: our hope is for you to dare to dive\ndeep\, analyzing topics and
  navigating the twists and turns of politics\ntogether. If you share a pas
 sion for continuous learning and want to\nexplore the intricacies of our w
 orld’s challenges\, then this club is\nyour intellectual haven (or entry
 ) into finding out more.\n\nHow It Works:\n\n• Members will propose book
 s by adding them to this list.\n\nWhere To Find the Books:\n\nWe promise t
 hat all the books we will discuss will be available online\,\nin bookstore
 s and in most cases\, in your local library. Most will be\navailable in ha
 rdcopy\, audiobook\, and e-book. Please consider borrowing\nthe books from
  your local library. If you find purchasing new copies of\nthe books beyon
 d your budget\, we encourage you to look for used copies\,\nwhich you are 
 likely to find online at Powell’s Bookstore\, ThriftBooks\,\nor on Amazo
 n (listed below the hardcover or paperback prices).\n\nPlease do your best
  to arrive at the beginning of\nthe meeting – once we are in breakout ro
 oms and the conversations have\nstarted\, the meeting doors close to new a
 rrivals. The breakout rooms\nopen (and the doors close) approximately 15 m
 inutes after the hour.\n\nWe would love to hear your thoughts on our socia
 l media pages. Don't miss topic announcements\, updates\, news! Follow us
