An explosive and unprecedented

inside look at Steve Bannon's entourage of global powerbrokers and the hidden

alliances shaping today's geopolitical upheaval.

In 2015, Bloomberg News named

Steve Bannon “the most dangerous political operative in America.” Since then,

he has grown exponentially more powerful—and not only in the United States. In

this groundbreaking and urgent account, award-winning scholar of the radical

right Benjamin Teitelbaum takes readers behind-the-scenes of Bannon's global campaign

against modernity.

Inspired by a radical

twentieth-century ideology called Traditionalism, Bannon and a small group of

right-wing powerbrokers are planning new political mobilizations on a global

scale—discussed and debated in secret meetings organized by Bannon in hotel

suites and private apartments in DC, Europe and South America. Their goal?

To upend the world order and reorganize geopolitics on the basis of archaic values

rather than modern ideals of democracy, freedom, social progress, and human

rights. Their strenuous efforts are already producing results, from the

fortification of borders throughout the world and the targeting of immigrants, to

the undermining of the European Union and United States governments, and the

expansion of Russian influence.

Drawing from exclusive interviews

with Bannon’s hidden network of far-right thinkers, years of academic research

into the radical right, and with unprecedented access to the esoteric salons

where they meet, Teitelbaum exposes their considerable impact on the world and

their radical vision for the future.
