Is it a movement, a theory, a trend, or just an unorganized group of people far outside of what used to be the political mainstream in America? Or, could it be all of these things? Why has it suddenly emerged into prominence? What impact is it having on American politics today, and what are the prospects for the Alt-Right in the future?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough careful research and analysis, \u003ci\u003eThe Rise of the Alt-Right\u003c\/i\u003e addresses these and other questions, tracing the movement''s history from the founding of modern conservatism in postwar America to the current Trump era.
