Description: ""Paleoconservatism" as concept came into circulation during the 1980s as a rejoinder to the rise of neoconservatism. It signifies a brand of conservatism that rose up in opposition to the New Deal, setting itself against the centralizing trends that define modern politics to champion the republican virtues of self-governance and celebrate the nation's varied and colorful regional cultures.

This volume brings together key writings of the major representatives of "Old Right" thought, past and present."--BOOK JACKET.
