The New Right and Post-liberalism: An Analysis by Furious Minds

The text analyzes the intellectual foundations of the New Right (MAGA New Right), drawing on the work of Laura K. Field. The central point of contention is the questioning of liberalism's neutrality—the author argues that every political and economic system de facto shapes social norms and the citizens' model of life. Using family policy and the impact of industrial decline on marital stability in the US as examples, the article demonstrates how the New Right justifies the need for "regime change." Instead of treating the worker as a flexible factor of production, the movement advocates for a return to a substantial understanding of the common good and the nation, criticizing previous conservatism for its insufficiency in the face of real socio-economic crises.
