The Conservative Establishment's consensus of the past two generations has almost totally broken down. Conservatism was unable to stop or even slow the Left's rolling revolutions in nearly every sector of American society-from classrooms to boardrooms, from the military to the culture at large. The Left has successfully transformed the nation over the past few generations, racking up victory after victory, with no clear end in sight. This is not sustainable for the country or the constituency represented by the Republican Party. For the Right to have a serious future, it needs to rethink its positions and think more deeply about the essential policy questions which will define the future of the country: race, men and women, sexuality, religion, the economy, foreign policy, and other major issues. This collection of essays, written by some of the Right's most interesting thinkers and practitioners, seeks to reframe the ideological and policy direction of the American Right.

With essays by Michael Anton, Richard Hanania, Carson Holloway, John Fonte, David Azerrad, Helen Andrews, Scott Yenor, Joshua Mitchell, Aaron Renn, Arthur Milikh, David P. Goldman, Matthew Peterson, James Poulos, Theo Wold, Robert Delahunty, Jesse Merriam, Jeremy Carl, Eric Kaufmann, and Roger Kimball.

Reviews

The Left's advances across American life in recent decades must be dismantled and reversed. This book is an instruction manual for how to do so across a wide range of cultural and political theaters.

-Christopher Rufo, author of America's Cultural Revolution

This collection of essays lays out a roadmap for thinking seriously about the nature of the existential threats we face as a nation as well as first steps to be taken in the invigorating challenge of national renewal.

-Benjamin Braddock, writer, ecologist

For decades, conservatives have documented the left's evisceration of excellence, intellectual integrity, and bourgeois standards of behavior. The effect of their eloquent critique was exactly zero. Up from Conservatism aims to change that record of failure.

-Heather Mac Donald, Thomas W. Smith Fellow at the Manhattan Institute and the author of When Race Trumps Merit
