IN 1968, as the false opposition of the European Left ushered its misguided supporters into another blind alley, plans were afoot to build a formidable alternative that could salvage many of the traditional values at risk of being swamped by the modern world. Beginning in France with the foundation of the Groupement de recherche et d'études pour la civilisation européenne (Research and Study Group for European Civilization), or GRECE, what became the Nouvelle Droite began adopting some of the tactics of the New Left and combining them with the cultural ideas of Italian Marxist Antonio Gramsci (1891–1937).

 

Having broken with the old-style nationalism of the past, much of which had been centred around Fascism and National-Socialism, the New Right set about promoting metapolitics and ethno-pluralism in the hope that such a strategy could act as a powerful bulwark against the rapid encroachment of liberal-leftism and pseudo-egalitarianism. This fascinating volume explores many of the key intellectuals and concepts that have endured for over half a century.
