Résumé

This book is not about Donald Trump. It's about his diehard followers. How could they so zealously and single-mindedly revere someone whom we see as monumentally unfit for his job?How is it that so many people were beguiled by a vision of hate and discord, of intolerance and violence, of authoritarianism and lawlessness, of coarseness and mendacity, and of simple basic meanness? In light of all Trump's transgressions, listed in Chapter One from "a" to "z, " how is it that people remained so devoted to this man, that they would professedly "die for him"?That is the subject of this book.
Several years ago, I published Violence and Religious Commitment: Implications of Jim Jones's People's Temple Movement. Contributors to that book include leading experts in the field of extremist cults. Now, I bring their expertise to bear in a demographical, sociological, and psychological analysis of what I term the "American Hitler" and his bewildering cult of followers.

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de Ken Levi

I grew up in Boston, moved to Ann Arbor, where I received my Ph. D. in Sociology at the University of Michigan, then moved again to San Antonio, where I taught Sociology at the University of Texas. I am the author of seven books: "Violence and Religious Commitment" (Penn State Press), about the suicide and murder of over 900 members of the People's Temple Church in the Jonestown massacre; "Proving God Exists: Physics, Cosmology, and the Universal Mind, " about scientific proof for God's existence; "The Moral Symmetry of Good and Evil, " about the scientific derivation of morality; "Knowing: Consciousness and the Universal Mind, " a composite theory for solving the "hard problem" of consciousness; "Mind of God, " addressing the question, "Does the Universe think?" "Scandal in the American Orchid Society, " about treachery and betrayaI in a volunteer organization; and "American Hitler, " about Trump and his fanatical followers.
I have also published a series of six articles on human consciousness in "The Journal of Consciousness Exploration and Research, " in addition to several other articles on violence, crime, and delinquency, including "Becoming a Hit Man" (Sage Publications), which has since been cited in over 110 other books and articles.
