Editorial: Mr. Gingrich’s Deceptions

Acting as the anti-establishment rebel secured his South Carolina victory.

An anti-establishment view or belief is one which stands in opposition to the conventional social, political, and economic principles of a society. The term was first used in the modern sense in 1958, by the British magazine New Statesman to refer to its political and social agenda.^[1] The term can be distinguished from counterculture, a word normally used to describe artistic rather than political movements that run against the prevailing taste and values of the time.^{[citation needed]}
