Modern Age - Summer 2017 - 5

Tradition, Innovation, and Modern Age

And it made him the ideal person to lead Modern Age. He was
intent on making this journal something you don't see much anymore:  a forum for debate and discussion among conservatives
of all stripes. He delivered on the promise in his first issue. The
spring 2017 Modern Age, which features the symposium "Being
Conservative in the Year of Trump," is provocative, challenging,
and timely, while offering a breadth and depth of perspective
rarely found today.
Peter also created the issue that you hold in your hands, completing it shortly before he passed away. Both the spring and summer
issues capture what he was aiming to create with  Modern Age:
a place where you won't always agree with what you read, but
where you will engage with the most important ideas being batted back and forth on the right, and where leading thinkers from
all along the conservative spectrum hash out their differences.
In creating this forum, Peter honored what Modern Age founder
Russell Kirk identified as the journal's purpose: to "stimulate discussion of the great moral and social and political and economic
and literary questions of the hour."
Shortly after Peter died, his widow, Rita Lawler, offered the
perfect reflection on her husband. "He truly loved the students,
and loved the books, and loved the work," she told us. "And he
is counting on all of us to go forward with the work of liberal
education."
Although we are overwhelmed by this loss, we will indeed
carry on. We can think of no better tribute to Peter than to present to you this thoughtful issue he conceived, commissioned,
and edited. He was an incisive commentator on the subject that
our contributors address in the lead symposium: the threats to
freedom in higher education. As Peter wrote in his editor's note,
