Thread: 1/ Geoffrey Kabaservice @RuleandRuin whose scholarship on moderate Republicanism and internal GOP debates is excellent, has launched a sharp critique of histories of conservatism in Politico. politico.com/magazine/story…
2/ He begins with an ad hominem critique of "liberals writing about a movement with which they have no personal experience." This invalidates the work of the vast majority of historians who write about topics outside of their life experience...
3/ He also falls prey to the crudest identitarian assumptions about who is and isn't a legitimate narrator. (Time to fold your tents medievalists, white historians of slavery, millennials who write about the 1960s, scholars of the French revolution, et al.)
