  • The European and Russian Far Right As Political Actors: Comparative Approach

E-mail: [email protected] Received: March 5, 2019 Accepted: April 25, 2019 Online Published: May 30, 2019 doi:10.5539/jpl.v12n2p86 URL: https://doi.org/10.5539/jpl.v12n2p86 The article is prepared within the framework of Erasmus+ Jean Monnet Module "Transformation of Social and Political Values: the EU Practice" (575361-EPP-1-2016-1-RU-EPPJMO-MODULE, Erasmus+ Jean Monnet Actions) (2016-2019) Abstract The article is devoted to the comparative analysis of the far right (nationalist) as political actors in Russia and in Europe. Whereas the European far-right movements over the last years managed to achieve significant success turning into influential political forces as a result of surging popular support, in Russia the far-right organizations failed to become the fully-fledged political actors. This looks particularly surprising, given the historically deep-rooted nationalist tradition, which stems from the times Russian Empire. Before the 1917 revolution, the so-called «Black Hundred» was one of the major far-right organizations, exploiting nationalistic and anti-Semitic rhetoric, which had representation in the Russian parliament – The State Duma. During the most Soviet period all the far-right movements in Russia were suppressed, re-emerging in the late 1980s as rather vocal political force. But currently the majority of them are marginal groups, partly due to the harsh party regulation, partly due to the fact, that despite state-sponsored nationalism the position of Russian far right does not stand in-line with the position of Russian authorities, trying to suppress the Russian nationalists.

  • Novorossiya: a Launching Pad for Russian Nationalists
    Novorossiya: A Launching Pad for Russian Nationalists PONARS Eurasia Policy Memo No. 357 September 2014 Marlene Laruelle The George Washington University The Ukraine crisis is a game changer for Russia’s domestic landscape. One of the most eloquent engines of this is the spread of the concept of “Novorossiya,” or New Russia. With origins dating from the second half of the 18th century, the term was revived during the Ukraine crisis and gained indirect official validation when Russian President Vladimir Putin used it during a call-in show in April 2014 to evoke the situation of the Russian-speaking population of Ukraine. It appeared again in May when the self- proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics (DNR and LNR) decided to unite in a “Union of Novorossiya.” In August, a presidential statement was addressed to the “Insurgents of Novorossiya,” though the text itself referred only to “representatives of the Donbas.” The powerful pull of Novorossiya rests on its dual meaning in announcing the birth of a New Russia geographically and metaphorically. It is both a promised land to be added to Russia and an anticipation of Russia’s own transformation. As such, “Novorossiya” provides for an exceptional convergence of three underlying ideological paradigms that I briefly analyze here. “Red” Novorossiya The first ideological motif nurturing Novorossiya emphasizes Soviet memory. Novorossiya is both a spatial and ideological gift to Russia’s reassertion as a great power: it brings new territory and a new mission. This inspiration enjoys consensus among the Russian population and is widely shared by Russian nationalists and the Kremlin.

  • Moscow's Racist Revival: a Strategy for World Empire
    Click here for Full Issue of EIR Volume 16, Number 30, July 28, 1989 �ITillFeature Moscow's racist revival: a strategy for world empire by Luba George Scheduled for later this summer is what Mikhail Gorbachov and other Soviet leaders have been calling since January the "decisive" Communist Party Central Committee Plenum on "nationality questions." The Russian chauvinists have long been preparing to present their program on how to deal with "nationalist separatist elements" who are trying to break away from the Empire. In an April 1989 interview with EIR Strategic Alert, Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr., responding to the national unrest resulting in Moscow's slaughter of women and children in Soviet Georgia, stressed that Russian chauvinist elements rallied by the mass-based fascist Pamyat Society "are redefining the relations between Muscovy and the rest of the Empire as those of the master and subject peoples. All pretense of the Bolshevik period is now being discarded. In unleashing this kind of thing, they set forth a process which, once unleashed, can no longer be con­ trolled, like the sorcerer's apprentice phenomenon." This comes in the context of a deep systemic crisis wracking the Russian Empire. That crisis is highlighted by the specter of mass famine and utter collapse of the civilian economy, the threat of which has triggered a never-ending chain reaction of nationalist unrest throughout Moscow's domains. What form of rule will appear in the Russian Empire following the end of the Bolshevik Period? The systemic crisis and the Slavophile upheaval unleashed in response guarantee major convulsions.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The recent tragic shooting spree in June 2015 that took nine lives at Emanuel AME Church, a predominantly African- American church in Charleston, South Carolina, starkly revealed the pain and suffering that someone motivated by hate can cause. The suspect in the shootings, Dylann Storm Roof, is a suspected white supremacist. The horrific incident—following earlier deadly shooting sprees by white supremacists in Kansas, Wisconsin, and elsewhere— makes understanding white supremacy in the United States a necessity. • White supremacist ideology in the United States today is dominated by the belief that whites are doomed to extinction by a rising tide of non-whites who are controlled and manipulated by the Jews—unless action is taken now. This core belief is exemplified by slogans such as the so-called Fourteen Words: “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.” • During the recent surge of right-wing extremist activity in the United States that began in 2009, white supremacists did not grow appreciably in numbers, as anti-government extremists did, but existing white supremacists did become more angry and agitated, with a consequent rise of serious white supremacist violence.

  • Rethinking Russian±Ukrainian Relations: a New Trend in Nation-Building in Post-Communist Russia?*
    Nations and Nationalism 8 (2), 2002, 235±253. # ASEN 2002 Rethinking Russian±Ukrainian relations: a new trend in nation-building in post-communist Russia?* VERA TOLZ Department of Politics and Contemporary History, University of Salford, Salford M5 4WT ABSTRACT. This article analyses new trends in the assessment of Russian±Ukrainian relations by representatives of the Russian elites in the late 1990s. It sees a discussion of the historic roots of Ukrainian separatism in the Russian media and attempts to identify the origins of the `Russian national homeland' outside Kyiv Rus as the first steps towards a revision of traditional Russian perceptions of Russian±Ukrainian rela- tions. The article argues that the new trends have become particularly visible following the signing of the Russian±Ukrainian inter-state treaty in May 1997, which it regards as an important landmark in Russia's acceptance of the independence of Ukraine. The disintegration of the USSR severely challenged, if not altogether destroyed, many of Russia's long-lasting and powerful national myths. Since 1992, Russian elites have been trying to invent a new national tradition. From the eighteenth century to the late 1980s a number of myths, crucial for the formation of Russian identity, were constructed and widely disseminated by the joint efforts of intellectuals and the powerful Russian state. Among these myths, the most prominent were: the view that the entire tsarist empire/USSR was the Russian nation-state; the perception of the huge size of the state and its constantly expanding boundaries as formative elements of Russian national character; the identi®cation of Kyiv Rus as the ®rst Russian state; and the belief that Russians, Ukrainians and Belarussians shared common origins in the old Russian nationality of Rus.

    BRINGING HISTORY INTO ACCORD WITH THE FACTS IN THE TRADITION OF DR. HARRY ELMER BARNES The Barnes Review A JOURNAL OF NATIONALIST THOUGHT & HISTORY VOLUME XIX NUMBER 5 SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2013 BARNESREVIEW.COM Back Door to War: The Roosevelt Foreign Policy 1933-1941 CLASSIC BY CHARLES CALLAN TANSILL NOW IN STOCK! his large volume masterpiece of 20th Century revisionist history is now at last back in print. Charles Callan Tansill, one of the foremost American diplomatic historians of the 20th century—quoted again and again by his peers and Tresearchers for decades—convincingly argues that Franklin Roosevelt wanted nothing more than to involve the United States in the European War that began in September 1939. When his efforts appeared to come to naught, Roosevelt determined to provoke Japan into an attack on American territory. Doing so would involve Japan’s Axis allies in war also, and so America would thus enter the war through the “back door.” The strategy succeeded, and Tansill maintains that Roosevelt therefore welcomed Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor. Tansill demonstrates quite con- vincingly his central theme: that FDR sought to include the United States in the Second World War on the side of the Soviet Union from the very beginning, and duped the Japanese into firing the first shot. Tansill based his prem- ise on an examination of State Department confidential correspondence and the manuscript collections of the National Archives and Library of Congress as well as sound reasoning.

    The Revolutionary Anti-Imperialist Movement Selected Essays Second Edition This book is produced and published by LOOP, the Organization for the Liberation of Oppressed Peoples, an anti-colonial, anti-imperialist solidarity organization. You can learn more about LOOP at http://fight4loop.org. 2020 Points of Unity LOOP The Organization for the Liberation of Oppressed Peoples (LOOP) is a communist organization dedicated to the advance of anti-colonial and anti-imperialist politics. Decolonization. LOOP is committed to decolonization, the repatriation of all Native land and the restoration of Native self-determination and lifeways on that land. Every inch of the settler nation now called “the united states” is stolen land, and the oppression of Native nations is rooted in this ongoing dispossession. LOOP struggles against all forms of settler colonial politics, both right and “left,” and unites with all demands and struggles which push forward the return of Native land and justice for Indigenous peoples. Anti-Imperialism. The principal contradiction in the world is that between oppressed and oppressor nations. Our commitment to a proletarian and revolutionary internationalism means that we struggle to advance this principal contradiction in the favor of the world’s oppressed peoples and nations, the global majority. LOOP recognizes that a defining feature of imperialism today is an immense drain of surplus value from Global South labor to the parasitic nations of the Global North. LOOP works for the end of imperialism and demands the repatriation of this stolen wealth to its creators, the international proletariat. Communism. LOOP’s aim is the achievement of communism, a classless society free of all forms of oppression.
