The Betrayal of the American Right

In "Betrayal of the American Right," Murray N. Rothbard recounts a pivotal history of American conservatism, revealing how it veered off course long before the Bush administration's policies. Written in the mid-1970s and published for the first time decades later, Rothbard documents the transformation of a once-liberty-focused movement into one that embraces statism, showcasing the rise of neoconservatism and its divergence from foundational principles. This critical narrative not only sheds light on the subversion of the Old Right but also serves as an explosive examination of political philosophy and historical context.
