Almost 60 years after its first publication, this contribution aims to investigate the applicability of the main argument of The Paranoid Style in American Politics in the contemporary political landscape, through complementary theoretical perspectives and reflecting on the recent phenomenon of flat earth theories.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
