Um, and I think for a third book, Matthew Rose is a world after liberalism, right? To give you a sense of what the the capacity for a post-liberal imaginary is like, what a world looks like when liberalism no longer is functioning, has been replaced, or what it could be, what people want it to be in the future.
Why people recommend it
A World after Liberalism by Matthew Rose is a political science book that investigates contemporary critiques of liberal democracy, exploring the intellectual foundations of post-liberal, traditionalist, and right-wing political thought. The volume is frequently noted by commentators analyzing shifts in modern conservative ideology and the growing intellectual appetite for alternatives to standard liberal governance. Zach Beichum recommended the book on The Ezra Klein Show in May 2025 during a closing recommendation segment, pointing to it as a useful guide for understanding what a post-liberal imaginary looks like and what contemporary critics envision for a world where liberalism no longer functions or has been replaced. Earlier in January 2025, Ezra Klein also recommended the book on the same podcast, telling listeners that it is a great read for anyone looking to be introduced to traditionalist right-wing ideas and the broader intellectual currents driving the post-liberal movement. Both speakers framed the book as an essential, clarifying text for grasping the emerging political philosophies challenging the modern consensus.
