Bog beskrivelse

With his acclaimed wit and acuity, Thomas Frank turns his eye on the ''thirty-year backlash'' - the common man''s revolt against a supposedly liberal establishment. He charts the Republican Party''s success in building the most unnatural of alliances: between blue-collar Midwesterners and Wall Street business interests; between workers and bosses; between populists and right-wingers.

Taking the state of Kansas as a paradigm, Frank describes how a place famous for its radicalism became one of the most conservative states in the union. He also seeks to answer some broader riddles: why do so many Americans vote against their economic and social interests? And whatever happened to middle-American progressivism? Frank reveals the true story, showing how voters have been persuaded to elevate ''values'' and down-home qualities above hard questions of policy.

A brilliant analysis, and funny to boot, What''s the Matter with America? presents a critical assessment of the state of America today.
