Presentation : Rising temperatures and the rise of the acute proper are two threats which are extra urgent every single day. However their mixture is explosive. This e book is a primary try and assume ensemble the 2 phenomena. What have the nationalist events mentioned, written and achieved in issues of ecology and local weather over the past 20 years? Within the face of the abundance of scientific proof, they’ve denied the warming and have positioned themselves as defenders of the fossil business. As an entire, the far proper abhors wind generators, opposes local weather agreements and feeds its hatred of environmental actions with conspiracy theories. Even when it claims to be a “inexperienced nationalism”, its positions stay in all circumstances decided by the protection of the territory and its obsession with immigration. The stock is coupled with an interesting historic investigation: within the archives of classical fascism, the place the writings of Marinetti and Jünger in addition to the achievements of the Third Reich and Mussolini bear witness to a ardour for fossil fuels inseparable from their warfare tasks; but in addition on the coronary heart of Western civilization the place they’ve been a cornerstone of white domination of the trendy world.

A outstanding work of podcasts and conferences. I like to recommend the analysis work of Benjamin H. Bratton, New Regular, the place he and his college students labored on utopian tasks on a planetary scale. It is very stimulating: there are some very disturbing concepts, however the immense curiosity of that is the accelerationist conception of politics. Gregory Chatonsky

A very hallucinating and summary episode, with a temporality that isn’t to our measure. This episode tells that the introduction of evil within the 1950s is the atomic bomb, the discharge of power by the destruction of matter. Gregory Chatonsky
