Summary: | In the past ten years there have been. It seems clear signs of a turn to the right in matters political and religious. In some quarters this has been characterized as neo-conservatism - a generic term used to cover a host of attitudes and behaviours.

A whole spectrum of explanations and hypotheses - some more satisfying than others - have been advanced to account for this shift. |
