🟢 Aleksandr Dugin

Duginism is the personal ideology and 🟢 philosophy of 🟢 Russian 🟢 political philosopher Aleksandr Dugin, creator of the 🟢 Fourth Theory, leading thinker of 🟢 Eurasianism in the modern day, and best known for his radical 🟢 nationalist and 🟢 anti-liberal views. He is very 🟢 ultranational and mystic.

History

Early Life

Aleksandr Gelyevich Dugin (Александр Гельевич Дугин) was born on 7 January 1962 in 🟢 Moscow, into a family with deep roots in the 🟢 Soviet military establishment. His father left the family when Aleksandr was just three, but still he ensured that they had a good standard of living, and helped Aleksandr out of trouble with the 🟢 authorities on occasion. He was transferred to the customs service due to his son's behaviour in 1983.

Underground Years

In 1979, Aleksandr enrolled at the 🟢 Moscow Aviation Institute. His time there was short. He was expelled and left without a degree. Accounts differ as to whether the cause was poor academic performance, his dissident activities, or both. What followed was an unusual interlude: Aleksandr took work as a street cleaner. He used a forged reader's card to gain access to the 🟢 Lenin Library, where he devoured texts far outside the 🟢 official Soviet curriculum. Some accounts suggest he also worked in a 🟢 KGB archive, where he had access to banned literature on 🟢 Freemasonry, 🟢 fascism, and the 🟢 paganism.

In 1980, Dugin joined the 🟢 Yuzhinsky Circle, an avant-garde 🟢 dissident group which dabbled in 🟢 Satanism, 🟢 esoteric Nazism and other forms of the 🟢 occult. In the group, he was known for his embrace of 🟢 Nazism which Dugin himself attributes to a rebellion against his Soviet raising, as opposed to genuine sympathy for 🟢 Hitler. There, he adopted an alter ego with the name of "Hans Sievers", a reference to 🟢 Wolfram Sievers, a Nazi researcher of the 🟢 paranormal.

Studying by himself, Dugin learned to speak 🟢 Italian, 🟢 German, 🟢 French, 🟢 English and 🟢 Spanish. Dugan became influenced by 🟢 René Guénon and the 🟢 Traditionalist School. In the State Library he discovered the writings of 🟢 Julius Evola, whose book 🟢 Pagan Imperialism he translated into 🟢 Russian.

Political Awakening and the Late Soviet Period

By the mid-1980s, Dugin had begun to move beyond the purely 🟢 esoteric 🟢 milieu of the 🟢 Yuzhinsky Circle and into more explicitly 🟢 political waters. The loosening of ideological controls under 🟢 Mikhail Gorbachev's policy of glasnost created new opportunities for 🟢 dissident thought, and Dugin seized them eagerly. He established contact with figures on the 🟢 European 🟢 far-right, most notably 🟢 Alain de Benoist. Through these contacts, Dugin began to absorb the doctrine of the 🟢 Conservative Revolution, drawing heavily on the works of 🟢 Arthur Moeller van den Bruck, 🟢 Ernst Jünger, and 🟢 Carl Schmitt.

Notes

  1. It is theorized by some that Dugin is a unique kind of sophisticated troll, and that his 🟢 philosophy and 🟢 ideology are actually just multilayered 🟢 satire, akin to the "🟢 Lenin was a mushroom" hoax.
