Timothy Shenk is a historian of the modern United States with a particular interest in political and intellectual history. His latest book, Left Adrift: What Happened to Liberal Politics, will be published by Columbia Global Reports this fall. The book uses the history of a long-running battle inside the Democratic consultant class to explore the remaking of leftwing electoral coalitions around the world over the last fifty years. His previous book, Realigners: Partisan Hacks, Political Visionaries, and the Struggle to Rule American Democracy, chronicled the making and breaking of the country’s dominant political majorities from the founding to the present; published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux, it was named one of the best political books of 2022 by the Wall Street Journal. He is currently working on an intellectual biography of the American economy, which is under contract with Princeton University Press
