Examine the factors that contributed to the resurgence of conservatism in American politics and government from 1964 to the end
valkas [14]

Answer:

In the late 1950s and early 1960s conservatives were widely dismissed as "kooks" and "crackpots" with no hope of winning political power. In 1950 the literary critic Lionel Trilling spoke for a generation of scholars and journalists when he wrote that "in the United States at this time liberalism is not only the dominant but even the sole intellectual tradition.... It is the plain fact [that] there are no conservative or reactionary ideas in general circulation" but only "irritable mental gestures which seem to resemble ideas." The historian Richard Hofstadter echoed Trilling's assessment, arguing that the right was not a serious, long-term political movement but rather a transitory phenomenon led by irrational, paranoid people who were angry at the changes taking place in America.

help asap i can not say anything on my other account so yeah here is the question explain the difference between a primary sourc
o-na [289]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

A primary source is one that is written by someone who experienced the event firsthand. Anne Frank's diary is an example of a primary source. She was the first (primary) person who experienced what happened on that hierarchy.

A secondary source is one that is written about a primary source. It comes second on the hierarchy of receiving historical information because it has to be based on a primary source, which gives the actual information. A history documentary is an example of a secondary source.

Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
