@HeerJeet It's interesting that in this essay, D. Frum puts billing for "New Class" not on Irving Kristol, but Rusher http://www.frumforum.com/is-conservatism-dead-no-its-resting/ …2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@jonwinsor Concept of "New Class" actually rooted in inter-Trotskyist debates of late 1930s (LT, Rizzi, Burnham, etc.)@davidfrum2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@HeerJeet@davidfrum Its origins are murky because there are at least two threads. There's Burnham, but also Trilling's "Adversary Culture."1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@jonwinsor@davidfrum Trilling, like Burnham, was shaped by the anti-Stalinist Left of the 1930s, early 1940s. That's where concept emerged.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@HeerJeet@davidfrum Agreed, but the kind of anti-statism each argued for are very different. The Trilling school accepts the welfare state.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@jonwinsor Burnham wasn't a free market guy at all. More like a Rockefeller Republican domestically. Accepted welfare state.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@jonwinsor Burnham was domestic moderate (except maybe on Civil Rights) and foreign policy extremist. Opposite of, say, Murray Rothbard.
