Resumen:
Examines the rise of movement conservatism in the U.S., defined by the author as a network of people and institutions that extends far beyond what is normally considered political life; contends that Republican conservatism is the result of white backlash against the civil rights movement; and argues that the drastic economic inequality that has developed in the U.S. since the 1980s is in direct correlation to political partisanship.
