Books by Jason Hackworth

Manufacturing Decline argues that antigovernment conservatives capitalized on-and perpetuated-Rust Belt cities' misfortunes by stoking racial resentment. Jason Hackworth traces how the conservative movement has used the imagery and ideas of urban decline since the 1970s to advance their cause.

Explores how the Religious Right has supported neoliberalism in the US, bringing a particular focus to welfare - an arena where conservative Protestant politics and neoliberal economic ideas come together most clearly.
