Is The "New Right" Just Postmodernism in Disguise? with Hicks and Salsman
from The Atlas Society Presents - Objectively Speaking · host The Atlas Society
Join Atlas Society Senior Scholars Stephen Hicks and Richard Salsman for the 303rd episode of Objectively Speaking, where the duo discuss whether today's "post-liberal" New Right is genuinely charting new philosophical territory, or simply repackaging the same critiques of reason, individualism, and capitalism that have long animated the postmodern left. Drawing on recent work by figures like James Orr and Roger Scruton, Hicks and Salsman examine what the New Right actually believes, where it converges with the postmodernism it claims to oppose, and whether both movements ultimately share a pre-modern rejection of Enlightenment values.
