This framework allows for an important and distinctive point --the 1980s were less a conservative revolution than a moment when conservatism, understood in Burkean terms, was outflanked by its various satellites and political avatars, namely, populism, neoliberalism, reaction and cultural and gender traditionalism. No long running, unique ‘conservative mind’ comes out of this book’s transnational investigation. The 1980s did not witness the ascendancy of a movement with deep roots in the 18th century reaction to the French Revolution, but rather the decline of conservatism and the rise of movements and rhetoric that had remained marginal to traditional conservatism.World historyHistory, ModernWorld politicsIntellectual life—HistoryWorld History, Global and Transnational Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/719000Modern Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/713000Political Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911080Intellectual Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/729000World history.History, Modern.World politics.Intellectual life—History.World History, Global and Transnational History.Modern History.Political History.Intellectual Studies.909Berthezène Clarisseedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtVinel Jean-Christianedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910255259003321Postwar Conservatism, A Transnational Investigation1971489UNINA
