Abstract |
"White Power and American Neoliberal Culture uncovers the intersection of two seemingly separate cultural forces in the US: white power ideology and neoliberalism. Working through artifacts such as utopian fiction, manifestos written by white power terrorists, neoliberal think tank reports, and neoconservative policy statements, the authors analyze the current forms of white supremacy and neoliberal racial capitalism to show how they reinforce each other by fetishizing the white family. Drawing on scholars from a wide variety of disciplines, the book contextualizes the increase of both white ethnonationalism and social and economic inequality that mark the US in the 2020s"-- Provided by publisher. |
