In his book, Moral Politics: How Liberals and Conservatives Think, Lakoff argues that liberals and conservatives hold different values. Among other things, we discuss: Foundational moral values and how they are different in liberals and conservatives How religion binds people. In 2001, this book was revised as Moral Politics: How Liberals and Conservatives Think. See Lakoff, Moral Politics: How Liberals and Conservatives Think (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1996).
