Why Postliberalism Failed is a podcast that critiques the recent rise of interest in Catholic integralism and rightwing authoritarianism. James M. Patterson (Ave Maria) and Thomas Howes (Princeton) take the listener through the logical fallacies, theological errors, historical disasters, and political violence that has defined various “postliberal” regimes—all of which failed. They also connect these discussions to the rapid rise of postliberal ideas into rightwing politics in America and elsewhere in the world.

In today's episode, we spend some time talking to Dr. Dawn Eden Goldstein about American Jesuit priest Father Louis J. Twomey and his contributions to the Civil Rights Movement. We also speak to her about Father Edward Dowling, another American Jesuits who dedicated his life to people with addictions, troubled marriages, and nervous disorders. Their examples provide an alternative vision for Catholicism in America that serves the stated ends of postliberalism but without all of the weird baggage.
