Unraveling the many different strands of right-wing populist ideology, the authors examine the political functions of white supremacist beliefs, hatred of Catholics, Jews, and immigrants, homophobia, and the subordination of women. Throughout, the book presents a nuanced portrait that is true to the complexities and paradoxes of our political life. It contends that right-wing populists are dangerous not because they are zealots on the fringes of society/m-/but because many are average citizens making earnest (though misguided) attempts to challenge existing power relations. Informative and thought-provoking, this book provides compelling insights into where right-wing populism comes from, how it has been fostered by the American social order, and how proponents of equality and social justice might work to diminish its influence.
