Conservatism Inc.
The Battle for the American Right
Conservatism Inc. is a compilation of first-rate journalistic pieces written in the heat of the moment by James Kirkpatrick, during one of the most intense periods of contemporary American politics — the events surrounding the election of Donald Trump as president of the United States. But Conservatism Inc. is also a concerted critique of an entire political class from the ground up, with special regard for the failings and cowardice of contemporary American conservatism.
With all the uncompromising and fearless wit of a latter-day H. L. Mencken, Kirkpatrick cuts to the bone of contemporary events, exposing the essential and enduring questions lying beneath transient events. This book thus serves as a timely reminder of one of the watershed democratic moments of recent American history, a stinging survey of the sorry American political scene, and an admonitory revelation of what is fundamentally at stake in our current politics.
Reading Conservatism Inc.: The Battle for the American Right helps solidify our knowledge of the future. It transforms certainty of defeat into a commitment to victory, realizing that attempting a Buckleyite removal of that which offends others will not work, and that we have to steam straight ahead into battle knowing that it will polarize, divide, and perhaps shatter the United States. [...] A pleasant read, owing in part to its division into smaller pieces, it presents us with the type of certainty that comes from knowing what does not work, and why it was doomed, which allows us in turn to look toward the future as a place where actual conservatism can exist.

James Kirkpatrick, columnist for VDare.com and The Social Contract Quarterly, spent years within a conservative movement that now has no place for him, but readers of his new book Conservatism Inc. will be the beneficiaries of their folly. No one knows that gutless, cowardly gang of careerists better than he does. [...] The pieces are short and punchy, ideal especially for younger readers getting up to speed on America’s current situation and the nationalist response.

I started reading Conservatism Inc. in the midst of the “Groyper Wars,” in which young men on the Dissident Right publicly confronted conservative figures such as Charlie Kirk, Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, and Dan Crenshaw — Conservative Inc. to a man — during their college speaking tours. Questions about race, immigration, and demographic change left these men sputtering about “racism” and “white nationalism,” and sounding just like the leftists they are supposedly fighting.
