In her third lecture, Dr. Laura Field discussed the post-liberal faction of the MAGA new right and its key figures, including Patrick Deneen and Adrian Vermeule. She contrasted the post-liberals with the Claremonters, discussed in the third lecture, and highlighted their differing views on the American founding and the role of the state. The lecture delved into the contradictions within Trumpism and post-liberalism, the complexities of defining the “common good,” and the apocalyptic rhetoric prevalent among post-liberal thinkers.
