As historical beings we train ourselves to accept the torch of existing social conditions and pass the torch to the next generation to help plant better social conditions. The Atlanticist world of the West is falling apart. The Asian world is rising. While Western anthropology and macrosociology has made some important contributions it has been relatively neglectful of steppe people and has generally looked skeptically on the value of ethnicity and other forms of attachment. This is because capitalist societies need individuals, not groups to be the lowest unit for its economic advertising. Dugin’s work, as shown in this article, supports both ancient forms of attachment and the place of steppe people in social evolution. In the extent to which socialists wish to be Eurasian polarists, we owe it to the world and ourselves understanding of their picture of how societies evolved. </blockquote><p></p><p>In principle Dugin sees himself as <b>neither left or right</b>, but in generally his reception in the West has very much been on the right, and Lerro's article was republished on <b>Countercurrents</b> (<a href="https://countercurrents.org/2026/06/from-shaman-to-heroes-from-prophets-to-traders-alexander-dugins-a-russian-eurasian-perspective-on-ethnogenesis/">here</a>), which is generally described as <b>alt right</b>. What is interesting is to see the American left taking an interest.</p> <p><a href="https://traditionalistblog.blogspot.com/2026/06/dugin-as-viewed-from-american-left.html" target="_blank">- Enlace a artículo -</a></p> <p>Más info en https://ift.tt/mb1ORta / Tfno. & WA 607725547 Centro MENADEL (Frasco Martín) Psicología Clínica y Tradicional en Mijas. #Menadel #Psicología #Clínica #Tradicional #MijasPueblo</p> <p>*No suscribimos necesariamente las opiniones o artículos aquí compartidos.
