Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Thomas Frank (born 1965) is an American author, journalist and columnist for the Wall Street Journal, authoring The Tilting Yard since May, 2008. Frank is a historian of culture and ideas and analyzes trends in American electoral politics and propaganda, advertising, popular culture, mainstream journalism and economics. With his writing, he explores the rhetoric and impact of the ''Culture Wars'' in American political life, and the relationship between politics and culture in the United States. Frank comes from a leftist political perspective and is highly critical of Republican governance, especially the presidency of George W. Bush. However, he has also criticized the Democratic Party for "swearing off economic ''liberalism''". He is unusual among writers on the American Left both for his political outlook, which revives the discourses of the American Populist Movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and for his polemical style, which has been said to update that of the muckrakers of the same historical era
