Perhaps in Latin America we can already see some signs of this very thing happening. The 2024 CPAC just took place in Mexico and some important people from the right-wing movement in the Americas were there, thought mostly from Latin America only. One of them, Augustín Laje, tried to define in his speech this "new right" that should arise to answer the political problems and also to attain victory in Latin America (and hopefully the world). It's a similar thing to what you describe here, though of course with some differences.
I don't know if his books have been translated to english so that you can read them, he has many interesting conversations but of course all of them are in spanish. Hopefully someone has already put english subtitles in his speech so that you can understand him. I think his proposition is interesting but of course for now it is only that, a proposition. Maybe if the movement continues it can actually materialise into something more.
Only a fool wouldn’t learn from Lenin. It wasn’t because of a religious impulse that the Bolsheviks started deifying him shortly after his death, the man absolutely towered over the party.
One of the most important tasks for a rightist vanguard party, would be to decide how big of a tent is too big. Should libertarians for example, be included?
Excellent work. You're right that Lenin deserves respect (where Marx doesn't) and I liked the comparison to Genghis Khan.
I also liked your point about the Whites in the Russian civil war, the danger of having too big a tent becoming a weakness, something pretty much every center right European political party had suffered from the last 40 years. So called 'moderates' who spend enormous amounts of time and energy trying to appease those who hate them.
Excellent article and an ideal characterisation of the problems of the right. I believe the biggest issue is one of the worldview in question - the Left is internaitional, relies on universalist concepts and pushes for levelling of all differences, while the politics of the Right are very often about parochial interests, idiosyncracies of individual cultures and native concerns and as such, do not lend themselves to mass movements, or a framework of ideology as a whole at all. Reactionaries of both the past and of the present are often wanting for a clear slogan or a description of what they aspire to, and in a clear matchup against the Left, they lose.
Before that vanguard is established, I believe you are right in identifying the need for a coherent theory that would serve as the backbone for the movement seeking to go beyond populism. Perhaps now, some 150 years on from Marx, is the Right starting to catch on to the need to reforge that localism and desire to protect tradition into a broader movement.
Very good article. I would very much like to see this sort of Intellectual Vanguard party develop among the new-right.
I wonder if anyone will actually attempt to create this party though? Ubersoy might after he releases his manifesto, but I really don't know what his plans are. The communists had internationals but what will we have?
The right wing will never be unified into one thing because that’s not how the right wing works. Rallying around equality is easy, being against equality and for hierarchy cannot be collapsed into one since opposing equality means opposing homogenization.
"MAGA" is the big tent movement that most of the right is riding the coattails of right now, with the exception of the blackpilled groyper camp although some of them seem to be reconciling too. This is probably the biggest "unity" there is at the moment.
