Produktbeschreibung
In How the Regime Rules, New York Times bestselling author Christopher Rufo delivers a bold, unflinching examination of how America’s founding spirit was transformed—and, in his telling, betrayed—by the rise of modern bureaucratic power. Christopher Rufo rose to prominence exposing the influence of Critical Race Theory and the corruption of DEI in America’s institutions. Now, in How the Regime Rules, he unveils the operations of “The Regime”—an unofficial network of elite institutions that shapes opinion, allocates power, and quietly pulls the nation away from its founding ideals. For decades, politicians sold the expansion of Big Government, Big Business, and Big Academia as the natural evolution of democracy. Rufo dismantles this illusion, revealing how bureaucrats, corporate managers, and academic ideologues wield immense, unaccountable power—far removed from the citizens they claim to serve. The faith in technocratic expertise has hardened into an ideology of control, eroding the independence of the American spirit. If left unchecked, he warns, this trajectory will hollow out the republic itself. Tracing the shift from FDR’s New Deal to LBJ’s Great Society, Rufo shows how the state extended its grasp from the economic to the cultural realm. The New Left’s “long march through the institutions” became a stealth revolution, embedding new orthodoxies in media, universities, and government alike. It was not a coup of armies, but of meanings—control over the political “software” that governs how citizens think and speak. Rufo’s warning is clear: the emerging regime keeps the language of democracy while draining it of substance. True change, he argues, must be driven by the people
