About "Intellectual Right. Theories and schools of contemporary discourse in Western ":
"A beautiful success. Transmitted, personally and publicly, treasuring my all those who contributed to this work. It is an example of taking seriously what is called ideosfera and public space. No pleadings, but naive and sentimental, lucid analysis, robust argued. The exact opposite of sterile speeches ventriloce, frivolous and narcissistic which we are served from the left more or less radical but also from areas a dark romantic neo-archaism, paseist and immune to sfidarile of modernity. Let us wonder as these two directions is logodesc when it comes to the attack against the values of liberal conservatism? "The intellectual Right" will not be digested easily in that part of the intellectual and political spectrum still loves Marx. Not because it's not profound, but precisely because it is. Not because it's not urgent matters, but it deals with precisely because it does. I share these thoughts with the readers of the book along with the urge for authors to not take what has not operated on, thinks Evangelicalism may have the last word. The sequins were ephemeral and existing paiatele. The values we believe in and defend them together is in the very dignity of the human condition, so are permanent. "

"Beyond its size, which is procedural crucial to the functioning of constitutional democracy, the left-right dichotomy includes an option, essential for serving the common good, in favour of certain values and principles. This book provides a comprehensive picture of the currents of ideas and discourse in contemporary has subsumed the merit of putting in light of not only their intellectual substance, but their diversity and nuantata. The result is that right cannot be reduced to one or the other of the currents of ideas that give it life. Its efficiency at the level of political action is not possible without the fuzionismul of values and principles doctrinaire. "
