  • Conservatism in America Syllabus 2020
    Am I conservative? Does that conservative hate me? Why do conservatives say things like that? What does conservatism really mean anymore? Conservativism in America: Spring 2020 2019 was quite the year for conservatives. India, Japan, and the United Kingdom all joined the United States, Brazil, and George Ehrhardt Poland in electing Right-wing governments. Worldwide, the Anne Belk 351J median voter is now a populist conservative. 262-6920 [email protected] What does this mean? What do these conservatives believe? How do they behave politically? These are difficult questions; Class time too often we hear shallow, one-dimensional answers. Answers MWF: 10-11 from those on the Right demand loyalty to their own particular Anne Belk 223 brand of conservatism to the exclusion of all others. Answers from those on the Left sound like 19th Century colonial Office Hours: ethnographers, titillating their metropolitan readers with Mon: 11:00-12:00 curiosities from Darkest Africa Flyover Country. Instead of Wed: 11:00-12:00 giving you answers head-on, though, I want to sneak up on Thur: 2:00-4:00 them from behind, so they don’t run away and hide in the noise and fury of today’s politics. You have grown up in an American educational system where what might be called a ‘liberal worldview’ is normative--in other words, that worldview is taken as Right and Good and Just. You may have had teachers who disagreed, and your parents may have objected, but fundamentally, liberal ideas about what it means to be human and how we live together form the foundation on which acceptable ideas about politics and society are built.

The Journal of International Relations, Peace and Development Studies A publication by Arcadia University and the American Graduate School in Paris Ur-Fascism and Neo-Fascism Andrew Johnson Abstract: Fascism was once a momentous and imperative subject of study, but as the memory of atrocity faded there has been a lessening of stakes and a forgetting of its previous import. The election of Donald J. Trump, along with the Brexit referendum, growing support for economic nationalism, and a global rise of authoritarian populists, has revitalized the “fascism question,” both by scholars and the general public. The reemergence (and electoral successes) of far-right ideological partisans threatens the neoliberal consensus, challenging received wisdom within political science. The dominant approach within international political economy failed to predict escalating political opposition to global capitalism. A prescient exception is the heterodox scholar William Robinson, who had warned his readers of emergent 21st century fascism.

  • Trump Administration Allies Have Burrowed Into 24 Critical Civil Service Positions and 187 Last-Minute Appointments
    Trump Administration Allies Have Burrowed Into 24 Critical Civil Service Positions And 187 Last-Minute Appointments SUMMARY: Following the outgoing administration’s “quiet push to salt federal agencies with Trump loyalists,” an Accountable.US review has found that, as of February 22, 2021, at least 24 Trump administration political appointees have “burrowed” into long-term civil service jobs in the new Biden administration. This includes at least four figures in the national security apparatus, nine figures with environmental regulators, three figures in the Department of Justice, two figures in the embattled Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and at least six other appointees elsewhere who have refused to step down in the transition. Burrowing of this sort is not treated lightly, as officials who transfer from political appointments to career positions must undergo scrutiny by federal personnel overseers for a full five years—and some of these cases have been found to violate federal laws and have drawn congressional scrutiny. However, there is a much wider slate of concerning Trump administration appointments that are not subject to such strict oversight: During the Trump administration’s waning days following the 2020 election, it announced 187 last-minute appointments to various boards, commissions, and councils that don’t require Senate confirmation. While some of these appointments have already drawn alarm for going to campaign staffers, megadonors, and top administration allies, Accountable.US has unearthed even more troubling names in Trump’s outgoing deluge. Similar to how early Trump administration personnel picks were directly conflicted against the offices they served, many of these late Trump appointments are woefully underqualified or have histories directly at odds with the positions to which they were named—and they are likely to stay in long into the Biden administration.

  • The Long New Right and the World It Made Daniel Schlozman Johns
    The Long New Right and the World It Made Daniel Schlozman Johns Hopkins University [email protected] Sam Rosenfeld Colgate University [email protected] Version of January 2019. Paper prepared for the American Political Science Association meetings. Boston, Massachusetts, August 31, 2018. We thank Dimitrios Halikias, Katy Li, and Noah Nardone for research assistance. Richard Richards, chairman of the Republican National Committee, sat, alone, at a table near the podium. It was a testy breakfast at the Capitol Hill Club on May 19, 1981. Avoiding Richards were a who’s who from the independent groups of the emergent New Right: Terry Dolan of the National Conservative Political Action Committee, Paul Weyrich of the Committee for the Survival of a Free Congress, the direct-mail impresario Richard Viguerie, Phyllis Schlafly of Eagle Forum and STOP ERA, Reed Larson of the National Right to Work Committee, Ed McAteer of Religious Roundtable, Tom Ellis of Jesse Helms’s Congressional Club, and the billionaire oilman and John Birch Society member Bunker Hunt. Richards, a conservative but tradition-minded political operative from Utah, had complained about the independent groups making mischieF where they were not wanted and usurping the traditional roles of the political party. They were, he told the New Rightists, like “loose cannonballs on the deck of a ship.” Nonsense, responded John Lofton, editor of the Viguerie-owned Conservative Digest. If he attacked those fighting hardest for Ronald Reagan and his tax cuts, it was Richards himself who was the loose cannonball.1 The episode itself soon blew over; no formal party leader would follow in Richards’s footsteps in taking independent groups to task.

The Future of Conservative Foreign Policy By Colin Dueck The Trump era has triggered an intense, yet useful discussion on the political right and center-right about the proper direction of American foreign policy. Conservatives within the United States — like Americans generally — have oscillated between realist and idealist interpretations of world affairs, just as they have between military intervention and non- intervention, always trying to find the right balance. But American conservatives have also made these choices in their own characteristic ways. In particular, a recurring tension has long existed between placing emphasis on national versus international priorities. Conservative nationalists have tended to stress U.S. sovereignty,1 while conservative internationalists have tended to stress the need for U.S.

News FBI Chicago Warns Against COVID-19 Scammers and Hackers By Emma Overton ’21 Editor-in-Chief and News Editor [email protected] As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to worsen— with 776,093 positive cases and 41,758 deaths recorded in the United States as of April 21, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)—scammers are using the resulting disruption in our daily lives to defraud victims. As thousands of college students across the country have returned home and transitioned to online learning, scammers are targeting their email inboxes and Zoom meetings. In a virtual press conference on April 2, FBI Chicago Special Agent and Public Affairs Officer Siobhan Johnson spoke about the ways that scammers and hackers are targeting all Americans, and how individuals and college students, in particular, can protect themselves online. Noting “even as society is shutting down, scammers are gearing up,” Johnson outlined the ways in which cybercriminals are taking advantage of online users.

He painted a bleak picture of America: a nation of crumbling, third-world infrastructure, “rusted-out factories,” leaky borders, inner cities wallowing in pov- erty, a depleted military and a feckless political class that prospered as the country fell into ruin. He promised an “America First” policy that would turn it all around. “This American carnage stops right here and stops right now,” Trump declared. The inaugural address echoed the themes of a campaign that had electrified the white nationalist – or “alt-right” – movement with its promise to stop all Muslim travelers at the border and deport millions of undocumented immigrants – killers and “rapists,” Trump called them.
