Old Right
In the
United States, the
Old Right was a group of
conservative Republicans of the interwar years, led by
Robert Taft, who opposed
United States membership of the
League of Nations and the
New Deal. They successfully fought to cut down immigration in the
1920s.
They were called the "Old Right" to distinguish them from their New Right successors of the Cold War who were more friendly to both foreign and economic intervention.
