The Fall edition, in addition to the usual varied mix of perspectives on different expressions of conservatism around the world, also includes several contributions exploring the theme of Iberian and Latin American conservatism. It begins with an editorial statement entitled “A Time for Resistance.”

A Commentary by Anthony Daniels then follows. Entitled “The Revolutionary Worldview,” it unmasks the leftist bias that leads our cultural elites to condemn some Latin American dictatorships while absolving bloody Marxist regimes of any guilt.

Features begin with “A Defamed Counter-Revolutionary” by former Margaret Thatcher advisor Robin Harris, which considers Augusto Pinochet’s leadership and legacy. This is followed by selections from the work of the conservative martyr Jaime Guzmán Errázuriz and “The Paradox of Modernizing Authoritarianism” by Gonzalo Cordero.

This issue’s Essays include an exploration of the idea of Hispanidad by Erik Z.D. Ellis, “Giving up the Ghost in Garcilaso’s Spain” by Kurt Hofer, a new translation of “The Authentic Reactionary” by Nicolás Gómez Dávila, and” Plataea’s Tragic Trial” by George Bogden.

We also present our editor-in-chief’s interview with José Manuel Castro, a 1981 interview of Friedrich von Hayekconducted by Carlos Rangel, Maria Huisman’s interview with influential Catholic political theorist Edmund Waldstein, O.Cist, and David Engels’ interview with world-renowned author and provocateur Michel Houellebecq.

As always, we have worked to bring varied reviews for readers’ consideration. Jesse Russell discusses James Lacey’s Rome: Strategy of Empire, while Alberto M. Fernandez writes “On Godfrey’s Sword.” Robert Bellafiore brings books by famous brothers Ernst and Friedrich Georg Jünger into conversation with one another, and José Antonio Pérez Ramosevaluates Elio Gallego’s book on John Henry Newman’s political theology. Julian Kwasniewski draws attention to the overlooked modern classic Judith’s Marriage by Bryan Houghton, and Joseph Pearce reflects on his decades of work on J.R.R. Tolkien. Andrew Cusack reviews The Enduring Crown Commonwealth by Michael J. Smith and Stephen Klimczuk-Massion, and Pepijn Leonard Demortier writes on silence and the compositions of John Cage.

Appearing for the first time in English, we present a translation of “La sed que nos define” (“Defined by Thirst”), a poemby contemporary Spanish-language poet Marcela Duque with the facing original language.

Sebastian Morello tells the story of Ex Cathedra’s 2019 Sauvignon Blanc and Wolfgang Fenske reviews Tullibardine 20yo, a Highland Single Malt Whisky.

This edition includes “Requiem or Laudatio?” Mark Geleyn’s reflections on our culture’s evolving approach to—and denial of—death and resurrection. There are also Tributes to Prince Luiz de Orleans e Bragança (1938-2022) by Charles A. Coulombe, Arthur Lage & Matheus Guimarães; Milan Kundera (1929-2023) by Joshua Hren; and Jean Haudry (1934-2023) by Duarte Branquinho.

Finally, the journal closes with Mark Dooley’s reflection on “The Religion of Antichrist.”

As is true for every edition, all of the contributions were curated or commissioned by Alvino-Mario Fantini, editor-in-chief. The writers have diverse professional and intellectual backgrounds from politics and philosophy to the arts and popular culture.
