Monday, 01 December 2014 01:41 PM EST

Roger Kimball, president and publisher of Encounter Books, joined J.D. Hayworth on "America's Forum" on Newsmax TV Monday to discuss the re-release of the James Burnham classic "The Suicide of the West: An Essay on the Meaning and Destiny of Liberalism," which was first published in 1964, and how it can apply today.

Kimball says that Burnham makes the point that countries tend to die from self-inflicted wounds and not from outside invasions.
