The Death of Conservatism

Más información sobre el libro

The book explores the historical evolution of the American conservative movement, highlighting a 75-year ideological divide between two main factions. One group, the consensus-driven "realists," advocates for the government's role in adapting to societal changes, while the other, the movement "revanchists," harbors a deep skepticism of government and societal structures, often positioning themselves in opposition to American values. Sam Tanenhaus's analysis offers a comprehensive examination of these conflicting perspectives and their impact on contemporary politics.
