In the wake of Obama's election, as commentators proclaimed the "death of conservatism," Tax Day rallies and Tea Party showdowns at congressional town hall meetings marked a new and unexpected chapter in American conservatism. Accessible to students and general readers, Steep: The Precipitous Rise of the Tea Party brings together leading scholars and experts on the American Right to examine a political movement that electrified American society. Topics addressed by the volume's contributors include the Tea Party's roots in earlier mass movements of the Right and in distinctive forms of American populism and conservatism, the significance of class, race and gender to the rise and successes of the Tea Party, the effect of the Tea Party on the Republican Party, the relationship between the Tea Party and the Religious Right, and the contradiction between the grass-roots nature of the Tea Party and the established political financing behind it. Throughout the volume, authors provide detailed and often surprising accounts of the movement's development at local and national levels. In an Epilogue, the Editors address the relationship between the Tea Party and the Occupy Wall Street movement. 606 $aTea Party movement 610 $aamerican culture. 610 $aamerican history. 610 $aamerican politics. 610 $aamerican right. 610 $aamerican society. 610 $abooks for history lovers. 610 $aeasy to read. 610 $aengaging. 610 $aevolution of american government. 610 $aexperiments. 610 $agovernment and governing. 610 $anonfiction books. 610 $aobama. 610 $aoccupy wall street movement. 610 $apolitical movements in america. 610 $apolitical parties. 610 $apolitical science. 610 $apolitics and history. 610 $aprotest movements. 610 $aprotest politics. 610 $arepublican party history. 610 $arepublican party. 610 $aretrospective. 610 $ascience and math. 610 $atea party. 610 $aunited states history. 615 0$aTea Party movement. 676 $a320.520973 700 $aRosenthal$b Lawrence, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01038168 701 $aRosenthal$b Lawrence$f1949-$01038168 701 $aTrost$b Christine$01475737 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791932303321 996 $aSteep$93690035 997 $aUNINA
