Main Street Conservatism : The Future of the Right Hardback

The political right is at an inflection point. The policies that have guided the conservative movement for decades are no longer relevant to the problems we face.

Donald Trump’s election exposed the vast chasm between the priorities of the conservative professional class, and those of the voters it purportedly serves.

But this chasm existed long before it was exposed in 2016, and as we move further into the post-Trump era, these issues aren’t going away.

The right must contend with the forces that drove Trump to power.

Main Street Conservatism: The Future of the Right takes seminal essays from The American Conservative’s robust back catalog and presents them in four broad topic areas that are driving our ongoing political realignment: foreign policy, political economy, American culture, and faith & family.

With essays from leading conservatives like Patrick J.

Buchanan, Sir Roger Scruton, Walter McDougall, Robert W.

Merry, Rod Dreher, and many more, Main Street Conservatism: The Future of the Right is far more than a disjointed anthology.

The book, like the magazine from which it is taken, is indispensable for understanding American conservatism in our current moment.
