Controversies and Viewpoints

Read Controversies and Viewpoints Storyline:

In this third and culminating volume
of his magisterial View from the Right,
founder of the French New Right Alain de Benoist concludes his
remarkable ‘Critical Anthology of Contemporary Ideas’.

Volume III: Controversies and
Viewpoints brings de Benoist’s
encyclopaedic knowledge to bear on a startlingly wide range of
figures and ideas, in a series of essays which are united by a
singular power of level-headed discernment.

The
topics treated include matters as diverse as the validity or falsity
of parapsychology, capitalism versus communism and East versus West,
touching on periods and places as different as Imperial Japan,
Confucian China and Hitler’s Germany, and addressing, through
careful consideration of the internal conflicts of contemporary
France, pressing questions regarding ethnicity and citizenship,
nationhood and union, power and politics, spirituality and
secularism. The survey that results from this symphony of
perspectives is as panoramic as it is rich, stimulating new ideas at
every turn and building up finally to the great political and
geopolitical challenges of our time.
