Episode 11 (44:05)
Swords and Plowshares In the symbolic language of my title, we need both swords and plowshares. The United States should take the lead in developing a form of society that can serve as a model for the world. I propose mandatory national service for all U.S. citizens, normally beginning at age 18. Individuals should be allowed to choose the form of service from a set of broad categories, including military and nonmilitary options, all of which contribute to the security and welfare of the U.S. and the world community. This podcast includes excerpts from philosophical texts and performances published by Agora Publications. Please visit the Agora Website to view descriptions and samples of the complete works.
