Abstract
In discussing transnational developments among conservatives since the Second World War, we will be examining a number of strands. Our first concern will be the rise of the modern free-market right. Our second will be conservative anti-Communism. Finally, we will discuss neoconservatism, concentrating on its recent years but in the context of its rise from the late 1960s.
