Seit 2004 sind Iljins „Unsere Aufgaben“ zu einer unerschöpflichen Zitatenquelle für die Reden des russischen Präsidenten geworden. Je feierlicher der Anlass, desto höher die Wahrscheinlichkeit, in seinen Reden auf Iljin zu stossen.

Die erste der beiden bis dato abgehaltenen „Separatisten-Konferenzen“ fand am 20. September 2015 statt. Angekündigt waren insgesamt elf Delegationen, die zwar aus unterschiedlichen Ecken des Planeten anreisten, aber dennoch überdurchschnittlich separatistische Bewegungen aus den USA, und keine einzige aus Russland repräsentierten.

It seems clearer as time goes on that these three strands of conservative anti-imperialism, conservative populism and anti-rationalism/intellectual populism go together, that holding one of these viewpoints is a very good predictor of holding the others.

Red-brown politics, like fascism, also tends to reject logic and science, promoting traditional/pre-capitalist ways of living and working, including traditional gender roles and sometimes “back-to-the-land” rejection of technology.

„It is impossible to mix Islam with Marxism which is a materialistic ideology but I think that mixing Shariah law with some elements of planned economy would be a great system for the whole world civilisation, especially for the Middle East”

The recently leaked emails from the office of Russian president’s administration contain information on the cooperation between a Ukrainian Stalinist group and the Kremlin in 2013-2014. Borotba, which became an icon of “anti-imperialism” for many Western left, turned out to have received money from an imperialist government and cooperate with far-right groups.

The second part of the article about the new far-right party recently created in Ukraine explores the complicated relations and conflicting patronage networks defining the course of competition in the far right political field and framing the agenda of the competing forces.

At the end of August 2016, a presentation of the new right-wing movement “Tradition and Order” took place in Kyiv. “Tradition and Order” targets a nationalistic audience, which means it will inevitably encounter competition from existing parties, namely the All-Ukrainian Union Svoboda, the Right Sector and others.

The referendum per se does not have the power to change anything on the deals made in the EU. But it is a good indicator of the public attitude to the current political situation and the decreased number of determined Fidesz and Jobbik supporters.

This autumn, a new far-right political party will appear in Ukraine. The Civic Corps of Andriy Biletsky’s Azov regiment announced that the party’s constituent congress will be held on October 14. Azov party can become a new player in Ukrainian parliamentary politics, possessing a wide base of mobilized and ideologically motivated supporters.

Misanthropic Division’s ideological premises include national socialism and anti-Sovietism, white racism and European traditionalism, homophobia, anti-Semitism, and sexism. The subtitle of their official webpage reads: “Revolt Against the Modern World”.

They serve to maintain the never-ending state of emergency, under which national and state interests are constantly threatened. The core capitalist processes and regulations are safe in such environment, since any emancipatory narrative can be swiftly crushed on the grounds that it does not focus primarily on the national interests.

It is obvious that the “street far-right” are trying to illegally and forcefully dictate their own ideological sympathies. Their patrons who have interest in the matter, make excuses for aggressive behavior of the far-right, and it increasingly legitimizes Nazis in social and political spheres.

Third position fascism’s championing of anti-capitalism is perhaps one of its most nefarious components. Its appeal to those on the Left as well as to those “insurgent workers and declassed strata” arises due to an aporia of the Left, where anti-capitalist movements are unable to sufficiently distinguish themselves from these fascist anti-capitalist movements.
