 R. J. Rushdoony, R.I.P.
The death of Rousas John Rushdoony on February 8 at the age of 84 will not be perceived as newsworthy by the American media, any more than Ludwig von Mises’s death in 1973 and Murray Rothbard’s death in 1995 were regarded as newsworthy.
Rushdoony’s writings are the source of many of the core ideas of the New Christian Right, a voting bloc whose unforeseen arrival in American politics in 1980 caught the media by surprise.
Rushdoony’s great gift was his ability to pack many ideas and a mass of footnotes into a short, tightly written essay.
