About this listen
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.

Insight into elements of rightwing politics
Malice present a peak behind the curtain of the more extreme / far right curtain which is very interesting and insightful. However, if you want to understand the more mainstream "popularist" right dominating politics around the world this book is not mainly focused on that phenomenon, but does address it briefly looking at some key players and concepts.

Good for those familiar & those new to TNR
Maybe it helps that I enjoy MM, I like how he presents information, he doesn't moralise (like The Machiavellians). It is nerdy but accessible, I loved it tbh.

A spellbinding origins tale of the New Right
I've become a fan of Michael Malice since reading his essay in The Anarchist Handbook. This is another fantastic piece by Malice with detailed, well-researched insights into the New Right. In my opinion, this should be mandatory reading at High School/College level.

The fragmentation of globalised independence.
Excellent reading and well presented with insights far outweighing many fanatical dogmatisms that have been prevalent in the ongoing zeitgheists of the previous millennia, the constant vasilation of demographics into existential threats via alternative media platforms evolving over the past eleven decades is a prevailing backdrop to our existence where no one ideology is dominant for more than its term provides ironically and still the paradox remains the unknown known.

Hugely interesting book
Amazing depth of knowledge and insight, and very funny whenever Mr McInnes pops up. This should be required reading for anyone interested in politics, or those wondering why the West seems to be imploding, but especially for the know nothing know it alls on the left who are all ready to shout "Råcist" at the drop of a hat.

Very Informative
A tour of what the new right is and where it came from. Interesting theory on the root of cultural works being in the reactions of marginalised people to a perceived alienation or detachment to a society.

Excellent delivery of a difficult topic.
So often hyperbole & pique can get in the way of understanding others - Malice's approach is to be a non-commital to judgement and to explain the pitfalls of the far right/new rights motivations and beliefs in certain things which enables better informed discussion & insight.

10/10, would buy again
This is a really interesting explication of the emergence & development of the new right, but even if it wasn't, I'd give it 5 stars purely for the last 90 seconds of the reading alone.
I do think that the author's understanding of how the Brexit referendum played out is slightly lacking, but that's not surprising given that he's US based, and it doesn't make his analysis any less relevant overall.
