"A leading political analyst navigates an unfamiliar terrain of what it means to be a conservative in the Trump Era in Still Right. Since 2016, "conservative" has come to mean "supportive of the policies of the Trump Administration": building his "wall," enacting ruinous tariffs and limiting trade, alienating our allies and kowtowing to dictators, spending wildly, and generally doing the very opposite of what conservatism actually calls for.

The 2016 election was a watershed for the United States. Alberta looks as Trump's victory not as the creator of this era of polarization and bruising partisanship, but rather as its most manifest consequence. When George W. Bush left office, the Republicans had no vision, no generation of new leaders, and no energy in the party's base. In the bloody struggle for the party's identity, the stage was set for an outsider to crash the party. How did the...

Time is running out on American exceptionalism. The light of liberty is flickering. At no point since we still had the Redcoats on our shores has freedom been more imperiled. This time it's not an invading foreign power that threatens us, but our own government gone wild- unhinged from its Constitutional limits. Many great books have been written about what we should believe and why, or why the Left's beliefs are flawed, but never before has a book...

"With each passing election cycle, Republicans face stiffer and stiffer odds for winning elections at all levels. They have long relied on a combination of Baby Boomers and rural voters to propel them to victory in races for office. However, both of these populations will decline in the future. At the same time, the ranks of millennials and urban voters have exploded. Millennials (now the largest generation in the United States) and urban residents...

Overview: Between 1944 and 1953, a power struggle emerged between New York governor Thomas Dewey and U.S. senator Robert Taft of Ohio that threatened to split the Republican Party. In The Roots of Modern Conservatism, Michael Bowen reveals how this two-man battle for control of the GOP--and the Republican presidential nomination--escalated into a divide of ideology that ultimately determined the party's political identity. Initially, Bowen argues,...

Congressional scholars Mann and Ornstein identify two overriding problems that have led Congress and the U.S. to the brink of institutional collapse: the serious mismatch between our political parties, and a governing system that makes it extremely difficult for majorities to act. With dysfunction rooted in long-term political trends, a coarsened political culture and a new partisan media, the authors conclude that there is no single reform that can...

In this short history, Mark Garnett contends that the disagreements have been particularly strong in the instance of British conservatism because the ideological label continues to be used by a prominent political party. Whether hostile or friendly in intent, commentators on conservatism have found it difficult to avoid the assumption that British "conservatism" must,...

"Para ser fecunda, la crítica no debe arremeter contra un hombre, sino trabajar en las ideas. La fuerza del presente análisis surge del ejemplo que Atilio Boron (Buenos Aires, 1943) aporta a sus lectores: la belleza en el discurso no debe distraernos del planteamiento ni de los argumentos (si es que existen). Es bajo esta convicción que ante nosotros -y sin anestesia- se practica un desmantelamiento político con rigor y demanda, a la altura de...
