The New Conservatism and Its Critics

The rise of Donald Trump has underscored the importance of understanding the intellectual defenses of a so-called New Conservatism. This book contains essays defending new forms of conservatism, critiques of this movement by scholars sympathetic to conservatism and classical liberalism, and criticisms of conservativism, both new and old. Its 23 chapters are authored by leading thinkers, including Patrick Deneen, Arthur Milikh, Scott Yenor, Robert George, Wilfred McClay, Joshua Mitchell, R.R. Reno, Corey Brettschneider, Laura Field, and Jacob Levy.
