Mad Männerbund?

James J. O'Meara

1,647 words

In the first couple chapters of Men Among the Ruins . . . Julius Evola outlines the nature of the State as constituted by Authority from above (as opposed to from below, as in democracy or party dictatorship), as represented by an Order of men, “who differentiate themselves from the masses as the bearers of a complete and legitimate authority,” originating in the primitive Männerbünde.

Sucker Punch

Trevor Lynch

Emily Browning in "Sucker Punch"

900 words

I saw Zack Snyder’s Sucker Punch a few days ago, but I wanted to wait until my ears stopped ringing before I wrote a review. Frankly, I needed the time to come up with something to say. Sucker Punch is often a great music video. It is frequently a great video game. But it never adds up to being a good movie. Indeed, Sucker Punch is a repugnant, pointless, and depressing movie, in spite of the fact that it is visually stunning and brilliantly directed.

March 29, 1895–February 17, 1998

Greg Johnson

Arno Breker's portrait of Ernst Jünger

221 words

Soldier, Worker, Rebel, Anarch:
Types & Figures in Jünger’s Writings

Alain de Benoist

4,454 words

Translated by Greg Johnson

In Jünger’s writings, four great Figures appear successively, each corresponding to a quite distinct period of the author’s life. They are, chronologically, the Front Soldier, the Worker, the Rebel, and the Anarch. Through these Figures one can divine the passionate interest Jünger has always held toward the world of forms.

Why I Write

Matt Parrott

1,026 words

Several months back, I saw one of these “Why I Write” articles and resolved to write my own. I came up with several good reasons why one should write: to serve as a lightning rod around which to organize dissent, to expose my ideas to constructive criticism, to arrive at a rhetoric which is both radical and relevant, and so on. Those are all perfectly good reasons, but they’re unfortunately not my reasons. For me, writing is a compulsion, an itch that I can’t not scratch.

Rockwell was Right

George Lincoln Rockwell

2,530 words

Editor’s Note

I had intended to write an article with this title to commemorate the birthday of George Lincoln Rockwell, who was born 93 years ago on March 9th. But I got too busy with other things, and the birthday sneaked past me. The title is specifically “Rockwell was Right . . . about Conservatives.”

The Racial Makeup of the Turks

Andrew Hamilton

Turkish actress Beren Saat

1,248 words

Islamic Turkey, which may yet be incorporated into Europe by the “West’s” totalitarian leadership class, has recently fallen out of favor with elites because of a perceived lack of servility toward Israel—a departure from the historic norm.

Sol Invictus:
Encounters Between East & West in the Ancient World

Julius Evola

2,563 words

Translation anonymous, revised by Greg Johnson

Franz Altheim’s latest book, recently published [Der unbesiegte Gott: Heidentum und Christentum (The Unconquered God: Heathenism and Christianity) (Hamburg: Rohwolts Deutsche Enzyklopädie, 1957)], should be of special interest to the readers of this review, for it deals with a significant encounter between the ancient civilizations of East and West.

The Politics of Resentment

Greg Johnson

1,585 words

White Nationalists believe that the existing multi-racial, multicultural system has set our race on the path to extinction.

White birthrates world-wide are below replacement, while our homelands are being flooded with fast-breeding non-whites who undermine white wages and take far more from our welfare states than they contribute to them, meaning that indigenous whites pay the bills.
