The National Bolshevik Party, founded in the mid-1990s by Eduard
Limonov and Aleksandr Dugin, began as an attempt to combine
radically different ideologies. In the years that followed,
Limonov, Dugin, and the movements they led underwent dramatic
shifts. The two leaders eventually became political adversaries,
with Dugin and his organizations strongly supporting Putin's regime
while Limonov and his groups became part of the liberal opposition.
To illuminate the role of these right-wing ideas in contemporary
Russian society, Fabrizio Fenghi examines the public pronouncements
and aesthetics of this influential movement. He analyzes a diverse
range of media, including novels, art exhibitions, performances,
seminars, punk rock concerts, and even protest actions. His
interviews with key figures reveal an attempt to create an
alternative intellectual class, or a 'counter-intelligensia.' This
volume shows how certain forms of art can transform into political
action through the creation of new languages, institutions, and
modes of collective participation.
