More about the book
The Ford-Carter years, often viewed as unremarkable, were pivotal in shaping contemporary American politics. Laura Kalman reveals how this era fostered a powerful right-wing movement that paved the way for Ronald Reagan's presidency. It also witnessed the evolution of 1960s social movements, as their struggles transitioned from protest to legal battles, significantly influencing Supreme Court rulings on affirmative action and privacy rights. Additionally, the period was marked by an energy crisis, economic challenges, and tensions with Iran, setting the stage for future conflicts.
