War for Eternity: Inside Bannon's Far-Right Circle of Global Power Brokers

By Benjamin R. Teitelbaum

Book Overview

One of Financial Times' Summer Books of 2020

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.
