This volume explores the problems facing the contemporary conservative movement and the Republican Party in the United States. The chapters analyze a range of issues confronting the American right, including the factionalism and fissures within its different strands and the policy and strategic dilemmas which its faces. They delineate the evolution of the conservative movement and its relationship with the Republican Party both in historical context and in the Bush years. The volume examines the potential for rebuilding the Republican Party and the congruence of elite and mass attitudes with conservative and GOP positions on a variety of issues. The roles and positions of various parts of the conservative coalition, including the religious right, women's groups, and conservative thinks tanks are examined. Policy areas that are highly relevant to debates in conservative and Republican circles, including domestic, foreign, economic and deregulation policy are examined to assess their content, strengths and weaknesses. The book concludes with a discussion of the general themes argued by the contributors, focusing on the strengths but also the on the conflicted nature of contemporary American conservatism and on what these strengths and conflicts imply for the future of conservative and Republican politics.
