I’d be interested in this if I didn’t have to subscribe to the CoHE just to read the one article.

  Came here to post the same.. The "web" option isn't much assistance in this case either. Google preview showed a paragraph but led to the same paywall as before.

  Sorry about that. The whole article showed up for me.

What a timely essay. It's hard to compare the current US to pre-Weimar Germany, but the same crises of economic value, secularism-vs-higher-purpose and excessive politicization of ordinary things discussed in this essay are major issues of discussion today.
