  • This seminar bridges political philosophy and political science and roots out the intellectual precursors of today's illiberal wave. It discusses how non-humanist philosophers like Martin Heidegger, Carl Schmitt, and Alexander Dugin became referential names for the transatlantic New Right and for certain non-liberal governments. Concepts such as the Being, the notion of the existential enemy, and the geopoliticization of identity are now dominant frames in the burgeoning far-right, illiberal, and authoritarian world. This seminar invites a critical re-examination of the relationship between philosophy and ideology.

    Basically all these talks were: "these guys said mean things and one talked to Alex Jones therefore their arguments are false."
    I didn't hear a single argument against these thinkers or even anything close to a good description of their thought.

      Welcome to Liberal Thought. Which is why it will die brutally, either by the indigenous who see it for the lies it is, or the foreign hordes who are incapable of thinking beyond the capacity of a 13th century tribesman but are welcomed in by the millions by liberals. Ironic.

    Lol I actually am enjoying listening to this, though not for any of the reasons which the speakers would have intended. The idea that Heidegger's critique of the Cartesian model of the Ego on very technical phenomenological grounds directly leads in a slippery slope to the "post-truth" era and Trump's election in 2016 sounds like a spoof title you'd find if academic conferences had an equivalent of the Onion.

    I think one of the most interesting ideas I've ever heard is that the liberalism is actually Christianity. You could UA-cam the professor of History Tom Holland on the subject. he praises Christianity for this, where is Frederick Nietzsche would speak of it in derogatory terms.
    Anyway very interesting, especially in light of the philosophers mentioned in this talk and their attitudes towards Judaism.

    1:13:15 Even if we consider everything else a legitimate opinion, Beiner's deliberate refusal to be intellectually honest at this point - and offer a context for Dugin's emotional outburst - exposes his glaring bias and thus inadequacy as a serious critic of Dugin, and delegitimizes this whole segment as nothing more that an unfortunate diatribe. Pathetic.

    The greatest summation of Heidegger, the man and his thinking, is contained in the one page essay "Heidegger the Fox" by student, lover and later scholar of totalitarianism Hannah Arendt. Only one with her insight into his mind and soul could speak so perfectly with so few words.

      For good reason. As capitalism increasingly deteriorated due to lack of regulation it creates an environment where austrian painters can emerge. As well as middle class or wealthy landowners who become interested in the cause of the proletariat. We are entering a radical time and this is why academics are worried about authoritarianism. Unfortunately it’s sectarianism, where the left is worried about the authoritarian right, and the right the authoritarian left

      In his own time, the Austrian painter was a ghost or shadow of ancient hierarchy and monarchy. And in the post 1945 world he has become the literal secular devil taking the place of all evil in the mind of the liberal world order......

    Capitalism relays off policies that our politicians vote for pro immigration higher birth rates as determining treasury & red rate. Without being able to determine how much it costs to print. These policies destroy class wages long term, as it allows corporations to hire at massive numbers at the same rate or structure it. As most who go into college or university don’t see it due to the pay structure they receive when leaving. Since as Americans we borrowed so much we rely on these type of policies for growth etc. meanwhile often saying blue collar workers benefit generally speaking for vast majority of people who work these positions.
    To open a store hire staff regular crew 18, management pay differs due to pay for their needs & often wants, so pay varies. Now tools given to management is huge spending wise to justify how to retain people while economic uncertainty are arising. Legal immigration isn’t going to solve it or throwing money to bail out a big or small bank to give to businesses, we’ve tried it to increase employees wages. It didn’t go as well as planned. Which as our country is founded on immigration, we need to consider temporary ban on processing immigrants & legal work authorization until their a wage change & policies that don’t benefit white collar businesses, aka debt markets & policies protecting big business from debt collection if you make under X amount. Yet we chose not to allow it. I guess we say all work has dignity, yet the value doesn’t reflect it. So question does all work have dignity or value? And how do we control it?
