Matt McManus joins to talk about his newest book, The Political Right and Equality: Turning Back the Tide of Egalitarian Modernity (Routledge). The book is a wide-ranging and gripping exploration of right-wing arguments against egalitarianism. We talk about as many of McManus's subjects as we can fit into an episode, including Fyodor Dostoevsky, Patrick Devlin, Patrick Deneen, Friedrich Nietzsche, Carl Schmitt, and more. 

Matt lectures at the University of Michigan.
