Not from a library. vii + 146 pages. The National Purpose was a highly influential, five-part public debate and essay symposium jointly sponsored by Life magazine and The New York Times that aimed to address a widespread anxiety that post-war America had become overly materialistic, affluent, and complacent, losing its foundational sense of mission in the face of the escalating Cold War. The series emerged at a critical cultural and political juncture the end of the Eisenhower administration and the dawn of the 1960 presidential campaign. Spurred by massive economic growth, intellectual critiques like John Kenneth Galbraith's The Affluent Society, and Soviet advancements like Sputnik, policymakers and journalists feared Americans were prioritizing personal comfort over national survival.

Other Authors: The series also featured essays from Archibald MacLeish, John W. Gardner, Clinton Rossiter, John K. Jessup, and defense strategist Albert Wohlstetter.

Kennedy's "New Frontier" campaign, which focused on sacrifice and national renewal.…
