Conservative Tradition

The untold story behind the most shocking political upheaval in the country.

First published in 1953, this magnificent work will be remembered in ages to come as one of our century's most important legacies. Written during a time when liberalism was heralded as the only political and intellectual tradition in America, there is no doubt that this book is largely responsible for the rise of conservatism as a viable and credible creed.

This book examines how IR’s European realist tradition evolved in Europe and, due to emigration, in the United States in the 20th century.
