The Fourth Political Theory

beyond left and right but against the center

Liberalism and communism are both products of the anti-Platonic tradition. To restore civilization, we must return to the metaphysical foundations of Plato and Aristotle.

Alexander Dugin declares the Putin–Trump dialogue a civilizational turning point, heralding the dawn of a new great power order rising from the ruins of liberal unipolarity, with Putin embodying sovereign steadfastness, Trump breaking from the globalist yoke, and Zelensky flailing as the sacrificial puppet of a dying Atlanticist regime.

Alexander Dugin asserts that Trump’s geopolitical vision abandons liberal globalism in favor of a multipolar “Order of Great Powers,” where true sovereignty belongs only to self-sufficient civilization states, each consolidating its own great space, heralding the fragmentation of the old world order and the inexorable rise of regional hegemons.

With globalists in decline and multipolarity on the rise, Japan has a rare chance to reclaim its independence.

Donald Trump’s return to power is not merely a political event. It is a geopolitical shift of historic proportions. In The Trump Revolution, Alexander Dugin dissects the rise of Trumpism 2.0 and its role in dismantling the liberal-globalist order, replacing it with a new reality: the Order of Great Powers. This is not the cooperative multipolarity envisioned by Russia and China but a harsher, pragmatic world in which only strong and truly sovereign civilizations can assert themselves.

G. Greenwald: Professor, thanks so much for taking the time to talk to me. It's great to see you. I want to start with the change in what seems like the climate and certainly in Washington, in the United States, where there's a great deal of expectation that with a new president, one who specifically is vowing that he wants to see an end to the war between Russia and Ukraine and there's a lot of expectation that that is going to happen. I think the same is true in Western European capitals, for better or for worse. Some people are happy, some people are not. What is the expectation here in Moscow in terms of that likelihood? 

The true enemy isn’t the West as a whole, but the liberal-globalist elite. With U.S. populists rising, the real war now centers on Europe.

It is still too early to draw far-reaching conclusions about what happened yesterday in the Oval Office of the White House. But it is already obvious that this was an event of grand scale. We will assess its consequences a bit later, but Trump has effectively already demonstrated that the war Biden started is not only meaningless to him but, most likely, a crime.

Alexander Dugin advocates a multipolar world order that respects the unique traditions of different civilisations, rather than relying on the dominance of a global hegemon.

Alexander Dugin tells all Germans why they must vote for AfD tomorrow.

Their end of history was war on the future. There is another (neither communist, nor liberal) reading of Hegel - Hegelian one. This reading identifies the end of history as creation of metaphysical State, spiritual Empire. It has to embody the future itself.

Alexander Dugin asserts that any discussion of Ukraine is futile unless it is grounded in a clear understanding of the ideological revolution reshaping global politics and the new world order pursued by Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump.

It is remarkable that President Putin and President Trump have finally spoken over the phone. This is a true breakthrough because the leaders of two great powers have initiated a dialogue. Naturally, the issues they discussed pertained to the global order. It is not fitting for the leaders of two great powers to speak of minor matters without first defining new parameters for the world order.

Alexander Dugin highlights Putin’s 2007 Munich speech as the beginning of a multipolar revolution challenging unipolar globalism and diminishing the relevance of the UN.

In an instant, following Trump's rapid reforms, where he declared that there are only two genders—male and female—a monstrous picture unfolded before the eyes of Americans and the entire world. Millions of those who had been convinced by the previously ruling liberals to change their gender or identify as non-existent genders suddenly found themselves transformed from "progressive", "forward-thinking" citizens into cripples, invalids. Just moments before, they had been inculcated with the idea that gender diversification, including castration, mutilation, and the psychological breakdown of young children, were signs of "the most adequate social behavior".

The liquidation of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is an event whose significance can hardly be overstated. When the Soviet Union abolished the Comintern (Third International) and later the Cominform, structures that advocated the ideological interests of the USSR on a global scale, it marked the beginning of the end for the international Soviet system.

It is worth paying attention to the fact that the Treaty refers to a comprehensive partnership. This indicates that there are many non-public elements in addition to those points and articles that are openly stated and signed by Russian and Iranian Presidents Vladimir Putin and Massoud Pezeshkian following their talks in the Kremlin.

Currently, everyone in Russia and across the world is clearly puzzled about what is happening in the United States. President-elect Donald Trump and his close associates, particularly the passionate Elon Musk, have launched an almost revolutionary level of activity. Although Trump has not yet assumed office — this will happen on January 20 — America and Europe are already shaking. This is an ideological and geopolitical tsunami that, frankly, no one anticipated. Many expected that after being elected, Trump — much like during his first term — would revert to a more or less conventional policy, albeit with his charismatic and spontaneous traits. It can now be said with certainty: this is not the case. Trump is a revolution.

Alexander Dugin opposes liberal racism and globalist homogenization, emphasizing the richness of collective ethnic and cultural identities.
