| Re: <nettime> What is Eurasianism? |
That's my cue to mention this book: https://www.amazon.com/Dreamer-Day-Francis-Postwar-International/dp/1570270392/ It was written by Kevin Coogan, who sadly died a couple of years ago. Kevin was incredibly knowledgeable about the far right, and in particular the European New Right. The book is nominally a biography of the American fascist Francis Parker Yockey, but it covers the roots of the red-brown movement in great detail, including Dugin and all the rest. I'd consider it required reading on the subject. The book was published by your friends at Autonomedia (designed and copyedited by yrs truly.)

Can't say I grok all of it (there's a learning curve), but this perspective is linked to what Dugin terms a special kind of "Russian truth" and his ideas on culture. > > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZxLxN77lF0 > > Sincerely, Susan > > On Sat, Mar 12, 2022 at 12:17 AM Brian Holmes <bhcontinentaldrift@gmail.com> wrote: > What is Eurasianism? > > And why should you care about it? > > The short answer is that Eurasianism is the set of strategic questions and partial answers that have arisen since the center of global economic gravity shifted away from the Atlantic Ocean, but not toward the American-dominated Pacific. Today, economic growth is centered somewhere in the middle of the earth's greatest landmass, what Mackinder called the "World Island," Eurasia. China occupies the eastern coast of this landmass; Europe, the western one. The middle is where the questions of Eurasianism lie. > -- Dave Mandl david.mandl@gmail.com davem@wfmu.org Web: http://dmandl.tumblr.com/ Twitter: @dmandl Instagram: dmandl # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: http://mx.kein.org/mailman/listinfo/nettime-l # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime@kein.org # @nettime_bot tweets mail w/ sender unless #ANON is in Subject:
