The Sixties are truly over, New York Times columnist David Brooks notes with sober relief. Goodbye, antinomian rebels; hello, bourgeois conformists:

"Today, parents don't seek to liberate their children; they supervise, coach and instruct every element of their lives. Today, there really is no antinomian counterculture — even the artists and rock stars are bourgeois strivers. Today, communes and utopian schemes are out of favor."
