[书籍] Pity the Billionaire: The Unlikely Resurgence of the American Right
出版社:
Harvill Secker
简介:
* Economic catastrophe usually brings social protest and demands for change u or at least it's supposed to. But when Thomas Frank set out to look for these, all he could find were loud demands that the economic system be made even harsher on the recession's victims and that society's traditional winners receive even grander prizes. * The American Right, in the doldrums after the 2008 election, was strangely reinvigorated by the arrival of hard times. The Tea Party movement demanded that we reaffirm our commitment to a failed system. Republicans embarked on a bold strategy of total opposition to the liberal state. And Glenn Beck demonstrated the box-office appeal of heroic paranoia. * Explains how dire economic circumstances have delivered wildly unexpected political results. * Using first-hand reporting, a deep knowledge of the American Right, and a wicked sense of humour, Frank lays bare the cultural malady that has transformed collapse into profit and enlisted the powerless in a fan club for the prosperous. * Essential reading for understanding how we got to where we are, and how we get out.
