This obituary is premature, but the story leading up to it is deftly told. The Death of Conservatism…traverses several decades of complex political change, so inevitably it neglects some important topics. What remains is an elegant brief history of the modern conservative movement, as unsparing in its critique of liberal hubris as of revanchist resentment.
