The Reactionary Spirit: How America's Most Insidious Political Tradition Swept the World

In this book, Zack Beauchamp combines political history and reportage to explain the 'reactionary spirit,' a faction that reacts against strides towards true democracy by seeking to undermine them.

Beauchamp reveals how this authoritarian style, born in the United States, has evolved and spread to countries like Hungary, Israel, and India.

The book provides a vivid picture of the global threat to democracy and offers insights on how to protect it.
