# Secondary Trails

Rieff should not be read alone.

Part of this site will track related scholars and commentators: people who clarify his argument, disagree with it, extend it, or help place it in a broader conversation about religion, culture, therapy, and modernity.

For now, this note is only a placeholder for that work. The standard will be simple: a secondary source should earn its place by helping with a specific reading problem, not just by being adjacent to Rieff.
