In Citizenship After Trump, political theorists Bradley S. Klein
and Scott G. Nelson explore the meaning of community in the context
of intense political polarization, the surge of far-right
nationalism and deepening divisions during the coronavirus
pandemic. With both Trumpism and the ongoing coronavirus pandemic
greatly testing American democracy, the authors examine the
political, economic and cultural challenges that remain after the
Trump Administration's exceedingly inept leadership response. They
explore the promise and limits of democracy relative to
long-standing traditions of American political thought. The book
argues that all Americans should consider the claims of citizenship
amidst the forces consolidating today around narrow conceptions of
race, nation, ethnicity and religion-each of which imperils the
institutions of democracy and strikes at the heart of the country's
political culture. Chapters on the media, political economy,
fascism and social democracy explore what Americans have gotten so
wrong politically and considers what kind of vision can, in the
years ahead, lead the country out of a truly dangerous impasse.
Citizenship After Trump is an invaluable and timely resource for
self-critical analysis and will stimulate focused discussions about
as yet unexplored regions of America's political history.
