ABSTRACT

So far we have scen how the major clusters of antiliberal resistance fit into the global culture war: their support bases, strategies, and goals. Their built-in problems with agency have also become clear. My main purpose has been to show why these movements have proved unable to mount a successful challenge. To the shortcomings already covered, I should now add their insularity. If global atomism is ever to face a challenge on its own scale, resistance must coalesce around a set of principles that can resonale worldwide. Why have these movements failed to fight on that level?
