What Does the New Right Believe?

The article frames the 'New Right' as philosophically opposed to individualism, a core libertarian value that Reason magazine typically champions. The framing centers intellectual critique rather than partisan attack, using measured language to diagnose ideological tensions. However, the premise—that New Right conservatism is 'incompatible with individualism'—presents a left-libertarian diagnosis of rightward movements, positioning the author's framework as the standard against which the New Right is measured rather than treating both worldviews symmetrically.
