In a groundbreaking analysis of the modern conservative movement, Conservatism Inc.: The Battle for the American Right uncovers the hidden forces that have shaped the GOP into a party of corporate interests, anti-democratic policies, and culture wars.

Drawing on extensive research and interviews with key players, author David Frum argues that the conservative movement has been hijacked by a small group of wealthy donors and corporate lobbyists who have used their money and influence to push a radical agenda that is out of step with the values of most Americans.

Frum shows how this corporate takeover of the GOP has led to a number of disastrous policies, including the deregulation of Wall Street, the privatization of Social Security, and the erosion of environmental protections.

He also traces the rise of the religious right within the conservative movement, and how this alliance has led to a focus on social issues such as abortion and gay rights at the expense of economic issues that are more important to most Americans.

Conservatism Inc. is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the forces that are shaping American politics today.
