Frank S. Meyer
Frank S. Meyer was a prominent writer, thinker and activist in the post-World War Two American conservative movement.[1]
Meyer was among the initial contributors to William F. Buckley's National Review at it's foundation in 1955, later becoming a senior editor.[2]
According to Joshua Muravchik:
- Meyer's great contribution was the idea of "fusionism," an attempt to reconcile the two disparate philosophical sources of the American Right: a traditionalist strain tracing back to the thought of Edmund Burke and a libertarian strain tracing back to John Locke.[3]
