He claims that the trends in both countries towards "valuing" individual and ethnic identities (Multiculturalism) has not strengthened our mutual nations. It has, instead, weakened our national identities (our "home") and turned us into a "hotel" with individual groups housed in independent and intolerant "rooms"--each seeking to further its own agenda. I see evidence of this every day in the news and in the dysfunctionality of our governments at all levels. As I was reading this book, I was dismayed to see a news blurb about how fewer and fewer schools require students to recite the "Pledge of Allegiance" to the American flag every day. What better example of loss of our national identity! Apparently, we are no longer the "melting pot" envisioned by our forefathers where all peoples were welcomed but were expected to become American in language, thought and action. Instead, we are now a "potpourri" of different flavors that will not mix. Likewise, he identifies several other trends which we all know are happening but refuse to actively address in our media, i.e., the "dumbing down" of America, the increasing lack of civility/courtesy towards others, the obscene influence of "big money" in our society and the growing trend of economic inequality - in short, the dissolution of the American dream. As a member of the "Boomer" generation, I certainly identify with his concerns.But I think his overarching solution to these problems is unrealistic. He believes that we simply need to go back to our Judaeo-Christian roots and re-adopt the moral lessons therein. That's all well and good--but I think, quite frankly, that "the cow has left the barn and she ain't coming back!" I think it's pollyanna-thinking to believe that we can go back to a 50's moral and community culture. The world has definitely changed. We are an interconnected, global community now. Like it or not, our countries are a mirror of this. And this process is accelerating. Some futurists have predicted that we will eventually become an integrated world civilization. On that journey, however, we will first fragment into separate "super-cultures" based on common cultural traits (ethnicity, religion)-- rendering our current nation-states and their boundaries meaningless. Once we have become sufficiently integrated (many years and conflicts into the future), everybody will be multi-ethnic, multi-lingual, humanist in their thinking and with allegiance to a world civilization. The USA and England would be long gone. Patriotism to a "nation-state" or blind allegiance to a religion would be seen as primitive anachronisms. Sound implausible? Look closely at today's trends and consider where they're going... ### ⭐⭐⭐ but not an easy read. I was glad I read The Great ... *by R***T on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on June 4, 2015* It's okay, indeed. A little denser than other books I read of his. On point, but not an easy read. I was glad I read The Great Partnership and To Heal a Fractured World, also by Jonathan Sacks, first. I fell in love with his writing and worldview in those two. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book! *by R***N on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on March 21, 2014* Rabbi saks does not disappoint his message is always clearA society we build together will be stronger if we respect each other's differences and try to change themWe can all contribute to building of a better society because of our differencesNot inspite of them.great book! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/8575807-the-home-we-build-together-recreating-society](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/8575807-the-home-we-build-together-recreating-society) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
