Produktbeschreibung
Chaos Agent focuses on the strange career of Steve Bannon in order to illuminate the fascist threat arising in the US today. Why is the far right able to mobilize millions? What forces and feelings are at work? Made famous by his leadership of the Trump campaign in 2016 and his subsequent role as a senior advisor to President Trump, Steve Bannon has continued to hold a weirdly persistent appeal across multiple media platforms and within the electoral arena years after Trump fired him. Drawing from his experience working at the crumbling heart of US power--on Wall Street, in Hollywood, in Washington, and in the digital surveillance economy--Bannon's long and unlikely career is a window into how hard-right nationalism has bubbled to the surface and come to thrive in American political life.
