Boundless and Bottomless: Dugin's 4th Political Theory Part 1 w/ Varn and Jason
Added 2024-01-03 11:00:07 +0000 UTCA sneak peak at this new VarnVlog series featuring guest spots from Sean KB and Jason from great post-Trot podcast The Regrettable Century. We read Alexander Dugin's most famous work, 'The Fourth Political Theory' to understand why all sorts of dingdongs, from the right to the left, are looking to this eclectic, irrationalist Russian post-fascist to understand this particular moment in world history.
This is actually the second episode, with the introductory program with Jason appearing on the VarnVlog YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGVSZcFZHlQ
Comments
Interested by your passing comments about the PMC. Have you discussed this more in depth in other episodes? Would be interested what you think of Catherine Liu's book. It had moments of brilliance but most the middle was like a Daily Mail column. I intuitively like the PMC thesis (as loosely defined as it is), but sounds like you think different. Calling it a moral critique is interesting. Great episode btw.
i wonder how long of a name you can make on patreon wow they just let you keep typing letters huh i wonder if it will let me sav
2024-01-17 10:58:01 +0000 UTCIt kind of feels like some desires expressed on this podcast for the last year or so was naturally leading here. Dugin is exciting to grapple with because the guy is smart and draws from a kaleidoscope of sources, this isn’t like flipping through the NYT or WSJ opinion section for the umpteenth time or like one of those “What’s new deal with the dang Popular Front” cycles. Hearing a ex-Trot, ex-Communiseur, and a ex-rightwinger engage with his critique is juicy stuff and doesn’t feel like having the same conversation over again.
