Publisher's summary

This program is read by the author.

The definitive firsthand account of the movement that permanently broke the American political consensus.

What do internet trolls, economic populists, white nationalists, techno-anarchists, and Alex Jones have in common? Nothing, except for an unremitting hatred of evangelical progressivism and the so-called “Cathedral” from whence it pours forth.

Contrary to the dissembling explanations from the corporate press, this movement did not emerge overnight - nor are its varied subgroups in any sense interchangeable with one another. As united by their opposition as they are divided by their goals, the members of the New Right are willfully suspicious of those in the mainstream who would seek to tell their story. Fortunately, author Michael Malice was there from the very inception, and in The New Right recounts their tale from the beginning.

Malice provides an authoritative and unbiased portrait of the New Right as a movement of ideas - ideas that he traces to surprisingly diverse ideological roots. From the heterodox right wing of the 1940s to the Buchanan/Rothbard alliance of 1992 and all the way through to what he witnessed personally in Charlottesville, The New Right is a thorough firsthand accounting of the concepts, characters and chronology of this widely misunderstood sociopolitical phenomenon.

Today’s fringe is tomorrow’s orthodoxy. As entertaining as it is informative, The New Right is required listening for every American across the spectrum who would like to learn more about the past, present and future of our divided political culture.

America’s Troll and Political Sage

I listened to the entire book in the first day, need I say more? Ok I will say more.

Being a Malice fan already I’m a bit partial to liking the book and already knew much of his opinion on the people and groups involved in the “New Right”, but his depth of research and understanding on both the modern Progressive movement and the New Right was very apparent and refreshing. If you’re on the left or the right, (maybe not far left) you’ll truly enjoy the book and will walk away with a much greater understanding of modern American politics; where it’s headed, and how we ended up here. It was my welcome to read this book.

Amazingly informative from beginning to end.

When I became politically active in 2012 I gravitated to the libertarians I met online. To some degree Mr. Malices book has brought back my thought and feelings about what happened in the movement over the last 7 years.
Thank you for a truly great book.

Very good. Very very good

I was surprised by the quality of this book. Some quite funny parts mixed with political theory mixed with recent history mixed with moments of sadness for people who have lost there way.

A Fantastic Take

Malice discusses many facets of a culture rising in America. At times being so accurate, I could remember interacting with those facets exactly as described. A central theme of this fantastic book is challenging your worldview given new ideas. This book does not instruct the reader how to think. It presents various characters in our world and describes how and why they think.

A Guide Through the Mess

What sets this book apart from others is how the author is able to provide overviews of the operating factors and widespread tactics of the new right while managing to convey the nuance of the different positions the new right coalition holds. Michael Malice takes the listener on a tour through various personalities on the new right, giving insight on both what they think and how they think. The mix of top-down analysis, first person interviews, and personal narrative in those circles gives a robust look at this movement. Highly recommend to anyone hoping to get a more full grasp of what the new right is comprised.

How the world went mad. And why.

We all have a sense that the world we see has changed dramatically in a few short years. The nightly news is different, talk radio is different, and the world of politics isn't just different, it is a new world entirely. Michael Malice's book is a thoughtful, thorough, and theatrical examination of everything you could feel shifting in the world around you but could not properly explain. I recommend this book for anyone interested in the current state of philosophy, politics, or culture. It is deeply informative and very entertaining.
