Political philosophers have been prescient in explaining trends that may explain our political misgivings. Madison warned during the debates on the Constitution that democracies are vulnerable to factions based on passion for personalities and beliefs; various continental thinkers have addressed the problem of nihilism-the modern loss of faith in objective standards of truth and morality-that in Max Weber's analysis pointed to the importance of charisma, in Carl Schmitt's to the idea that politics is essentially rooted in the definition of friends and enemies, and in early Heidegger resulted in the emphasis on the enduring significance of local, rather than cosmopolitan values. The former concerns-regarding demagoguery, charisma and nihilism-will enable an evaluation of Trump as a political character, while the latter concerns-regarding the status of universal versus local values-will enable us to evaluate the content of "Trumpism." Taken together, these essays seek to advance the public conversation about the relationship between the rise of Trump and the ideological forces that seek to justify that rise. 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aPolitical science$xPhilosophy 606 $aAmerica$xPolitics and government 606 $aPolitical Theory 606 $aPolitical Philosophy 606 $aAmerican Politics 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aPolitical science$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aAmerica$xPolitics and government. 615 14$aPolitical Theory. 615 24$aPolitical Philosophy. 615 24$aAmerican Politics. 676 $a333.33092 702 $aSable$b Marc Benjamin$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aTorres$b Angel Jaramillo$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300498403321 996 $aTrump and Political Philosophy$91974591 997 $aUNINA
