In 2016 Donald Trump was elected President of the United States and received substantial support from White nationalists. This book explains the increase in violent White nationalism and Trump's ascendancy in the context of the backlash against the presidency of Barack Obama. It demonstrates how there is a dynamic relationship between the Republican Party, various Right-wing populist movements, and the Right. Far Right social movements, political campaigns and the online presence of the so-called 'alt-Right' are all discussed. The book argues that unfair hierarchies of race, gender, and class are not aberrational tremors in America, but the fracturing bedrock of a nation in which being White, male, Christian, or straight no longer ensures a stable floor for power, status, or privilege. This is vital reading for students, researchers, and activists interested in American politics and the dangers of Right-wing movements and political parties. 600 10 $a Trump, Donald, $d 1946- 600 10 $a Roof, Dylann, $d 1994- 610 20 $a Republican Party (U.S. : 1854- ) 650 0 $a Conservatism $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 1989- 651 0 $a United States $x History. $x History. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 1981-1989. 700 1 $a Berlet, Chip, $e editor. 776 08 $i Ebook version : $z 9781315438399 830 0 $a Routledge studies in fascism and the far right 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20201103022122.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1E1914805D1D11EA9B49BA2197128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
