On political decline and realignment.
The editor of American Affairs joins us to discuss the decay of conservatism and we ask whether this decay doesn't apply to other parts of the political spectrum too. Is today's 'class struggle' really just between the upper-middle class and the elite? And we discuss the 'late-Soviet' USA - the sense of decline embodied in the gerontocracy of the ruling class.
Readings:
- The Real Class War, Julius Krein, American Affairs
- America’s Unhealthy Gerontocracy, Julius Krein, American Affairs
- Conservatism Is A Collection Of Losers. It Doesn’t Have To Be. Julius Krein, The American Conservative
