READING: THE EUROPEAN NEW RIGHT

I’ve been trying to consume just about everything produced by the European New Right that I can find. Starting with the obvious choice of Alain De Benoist, and this morning on The Fourth Political Theory. And, I’m frankly, kind of suprised at how weak it is. Not in it’s intention, but in its failure to really add anything new to our set of institutions that would bring about its desired social order. Or even, really, an understanding of WHY our early pre-christian (artistocratic egalitarian) ethics was superior both to christian and neo-liberal ethics.

Why should this bother me?

Because we propertarians have solved the problem of political ethics and institutions of cooperation. And we’ve rejected the ‘growth’ argument that underlies the western democratic socialist and progressive capitalist ethics.

We did what no one else has done in history. And we are basically ignored. Why is that? Why is it that we’re ignored?

It’s becaue of Rothbard’s failure to include opportunity costs, warranty, symmetry, and indirect voluntary transfer in his ethics.
