William F Buckley and the making of America’s hard right
威廉•F•巴克利與美國強硬右翼的形成

Few have done more to turn public argument into ceaseless politico-cultural warfare
很少有人像他那樣,把公共爭論變成無休止的政治文化戰爭。
William F Buckley Jr in his New York office in 1965

As magazine editor, author and political talk-show host, William F Buckley Jr is often called an intellectual godfather to the US hard right. Godfather, perhaps. Intellectual? Yes and no. He is remembered today less for his own ideas or for the big book on conservatism that he never wrote than for outstanding personal gifts. Buckley (1925-2008) had fierce verbal skills, charm that disarmed opponents and a talent for keeping disputatious intellectuals of the right together on the same magazine, National Review.

作爲雜誌編輯、作家和政治脫口秀主持人,小威廉•F•巴克利常被稱爲美國極右翼的思想教父。教父,也許沒錯。知識分子?可說是也可說不是。如今,人們記住他的,與其說是他本人的思想或那本他從未寫出的保守主義巨著,不如說是他卓越的個人天賦。小威廉•F•巴克利(1925-2008)以犀利的口才、能讓對手放下戒備的魅力,以及讓右翼思想家們團結在同一本《國家評論》(National Review)雜誌上的能力而著稱。
