Why the West Refuses to Control its Borders

David Azerrad July 12, 2022

Political theory has been reduced to a Manichean choice: either universalist human rights liberalism, shorn of any particular attachments (except during the Olympics) or expansionary, genocidal, blood and soil nationalism.

FORGOTTEN CLASSICS:
Localism, Nationalism, and Chesterton’s First Novel

Felix James Miller February 26, 2022

How do localism and nationalism fit together? How do each of these philosophical approaches to place use and abuse the innate noble feeling of patriotism? Over the course of Chesterton’s story, we are challenged to confront these questions and answer how we ought to live.

Double Meanings

Carlos Perona Calvete January 24, 2022

Marine Le Pen versus Éric Zemmour: the War of the ‘Rights’

Hélène de Lauzun January 16, 2022

The distribution of votes among the various right-wing candidates resembles a game of communicating vessels. Marine Le Pen is ploughing her own furrow.

Independent Nations: Is There a Future for Europe Outside the Union?

Daria Fedotova October 6, 2021

An Interview with Alvino-Mario Fantini, Editor of The European Conservative

Mátyás Kohán September 10, 2021

It’s time we stood our ground without flinching. Perhaps then we will finally see some real change—and help save what remains of our civilization.

Germany, the West, and Me

Kurt Hofer September 3, 2021
