The Deep History Of The Radical Right's Stealth Plan For America

Nancy Maclean

Présentation de l'éditeur

A scholarly expose of the ideas of political economist James McGill Buchanan and multibillionaire Charles Koch explores their role in the radical right's six-decade campaign to eliminate unions, suppress voting, privatize public education, and minimize restrictions on the wealthy.
