| "an amorphous ideological movement" |
The New Right is a descriptive term for various right-wing political groups or policies in different countries. It has also been used to describe the emergence of Eastern European parties after the collapse of the Soviet Union and Communism.
New Right appeared during the 1964 US presidential campaign of Barry Goldwater to designate “the emergence, in response to liberalism, of an uninhibited right: ultraconservative, imbued with religious values, openly populist, anti-egalitarian, and intolerant of racial desegregation.”
New Right was later used to describe a broader movement in the English-speaking world: socially conservative proponents of the night-watchman state, such as Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, or New Zealand First.[1]
White supremacist project
More recently, journalist Jeff Sharlet (a Vanity Fair contributing editor who covers the American right) tweeted that the
- “intellectual New Right is a white supremacist project designed to cultivate non-white support,” and he linked it to resurgent nationalist and authoritarian politics around the world.
Seeking revolution
In August 2024, writer and podcaster Matthew Sitman posed the question: The New Right wants revolution. Can JD Vance deliver it?
- By ideas, dollars and in personal connections, Republican vice-presidential candidate JD Vance is intimately tied to an amorphous ideological movement known as the "New Right."
- Some of its major players, which include billionaires and tech elites, want to gut the US' institutions and upend democracy in what they see as necessary, radical action to reverse the tyranny of liberalism.[3]
