What is the Alt-Right, and how will it affect America? Donald
Trump's election as president in 2016 suddenly brought to
prominence a political movement that few in political circles or
the mainstream media had paid much attention to: the so-called
Alt-Right. Steven Bannon, Trump's campaign manager, was a leading
figure in the movement, and the election results seemed to give it
a real opportunity to gain some political power. But what is the
Alt-Right? Is it a movement, a theory, a trend, or just an
unorganized group of people far outside of what used to be the
political mainstream in America? Or, could it be all of these
things? Why has it suddenly emerged into prominence? What impact is
it having on American politics today, and what are the prospects
for the Alt-Right in the future? Through careful research and
analysis, The Rise of the Alt-Right addresses these and other
questions, tracing the movement's history from the founding of
modern conservatism in postwar America to the current Trump era.
Although the Alt-Right might seem to be just the latest extremist
group to arise in the United States-one likely to take its place in
the graveyard of its many predecessors-Thomas J. Main analyzes
evidence that the Alt-Right is having a greater influence on the
American political mainstream than did past extremist tendencies.
The Rise of the Alt-Right is thus an important study for anyone
interested in the future of American politics and public life.
