Creating the New Right Ethnic in 1970s America

Focusing on the emergence of New Ethnicity in 1970s America, the book examines its impact on politics and culture, particularly the rise of the New Right. Initially a movement aimed at addressing the grievances of the working poor through heightened white ethnic consciousness, it ultimately fostered divisive rhetoric that propelled a conservative agenda. The analysis highlights the complex interplay between ethnic identity and political ideology during a transformative era in U.S. history.
