Reviews

Lucidly written, widely informed, and uncompromisingly honest-- a valuable expose. -- Michael Parenti Documents the stunning success of a network of wealthy donors and corporations in creating and sustaining a set of think tanks, legal action groups, and media strategies. -- Gary Orfield, Harvard University The authors claim that, by encouraging and manipulating the insecurity caused by technological advances and globalization, the New Right has created a powerful populist movement based on fear. The structure of the movement is carefully documented with an analysis of the journalists, media outlets, and think tanks that promulgate this message. A good addition for academic and public libraries with political collections. -- Library Journal
