Yoram Hazony, Chairman of the Edmund Burke Foundation, joins Jacki to review his latest book, Conservatism, A Rediscovery. Hazony explains how Anglo-American conservatism became a distinctive alternative to divine-right monarchy, Puritan theocracy, and liberal revolution. Hazony describes the rise and fall of Enlightenment liberalism after World War II and the present-day debates between neoconservatives and national conservatives over how to respond to liberalism and the woke.
Going where no political thinker has gone in decades, Hazony provides a fresh theoretical foundation for conservatism. Rejecting the liberalism of Hayek, Strauss, and the "fusionists" of the 1960s, he argues that a revival of authentic Anglo-American conservatism is possible in the twenty-first century.
