About this listen

This program is read by the author.

The definitive firsthand account of the movement that permanently broke the American political consensus.

What do internet trolls, economic populists, white nationalists, techno-anarchists, and Alex Jones have in common? Nothing, except for an unremitting hatred of evangelical progressivism and the so-called “Cathedral” from whence it pours forth.

Contrary to the dissembling explanations from the corporate press, this movement did not emerge overnight - nor are its varied subgroups in any sense interchangeable with one another. As united by their opposition as they are divided by their goals, the members of the New Right are willfully suspicious of those in the mainstream who would seek to tell their story. Fortunately, author Michael Malice was there from the very inception, and in The New Right recounts their tale from the beginning.

Malice provides an authoritative and unbiased portrait of the New Right as a movement of ideas - ideas that he traces to surprisingly diverse ideological roots. From the heterodox right wing of the 1940s to the Buchanan/Rothbard alliance of 1992 and all the way through to what he witnessed personally in Charlottesville, The New Right is a thorough firsthand accounting of the concepts, characters and chronology of this widely misunderstood sociopolitical phenomenon.

Today’s fringe is tomorrow’s orthodoxy. As entertaining as it is informative, The New Right is required listening for every American across the spectrum who would like to learn more about the past, present and future of our divided political culture.

Don't listen to Michael Malice describe Gavin McInnes' buck's party while driving. You have been warned.

The Author has done the work and does not caricature the various parts of the movement. One gets a full and comedic tour of this new anti-progressive style of thinking.

insightful and fun

Excellent insight into the new right (and the left) of politics and how the political establishment works and how the fringe try to manipulate the system and try to gain momentum and attract followers

Loved it! Malice is hilarious and insightful even if you don't agree with him. Having him read his own book is a great; him doing the voices is half the fun.

A scintillating and exhilarating work. Both incredibly fun and informative.
It’s so refreshing to experience an accurate and knowledgeable examination of the New Right.
My only small quibble is with the audio which is maybe a tad tinny.
Otherwise I couldn’t recommend this book enough!

Refreshing and exhilarating.

I was hoping to get a real insight to the political movement that got behind Trump early and explained the events and people behind it. Unfortunately it was not what I thought it would be. Way too long, anything interesting was missed under the authors explanations of irrelevant facts and analysis of various viewpoints expressed by the characters. The critical analysis of viewpoints honestly got very annoying and meant I couldn’t finish the audiobook. It perhaps might not be as bad in the actual book but hearing someone quoted than Michael Malice critically evaluating every point that was said that he didn’t agree with or was offensive was not needed. We know that most of the viewpoints expressed are wrong or crazy, and he didn’t do a good job of selling his political ideology (which I think is Anarchism- which is nuts now we’ve gone past living in villages and huts) well at all so that wasn’t his strong point. He glazed over some of the most interesting characters for boring ones. I appreciate he didn’t just start at 2015 but he laboured too long on Buchanan from the 90s etc. I read a review which talked to the fact it seemed unfocused and that nothing stayed and I think that was an excellent summary. I’d be listening and think “that’s interesting, but how is this really relevant, and why are you spending 20 minutes on this?” That happened a lot.

He obviously did his research and is well read, and his character voices reading of the audiobook were entertaining.

If you like or know Michael Malice, I’ve seen some of his older stuff on YouTube and it’s pretty good. Perhaps just catch him on those channels (and avoid his Twitter!)

Laborious and unfocussed
