This volume is a theoretical analysis of the current crises of
state and societal transformations in the Middle East and North
Africa. The emphasis on the impact and limits of neoliberal
governmentality places these uprisings within the specific
contextual and structural environment of neoliberal globalization.
The 2014 Ukrainian crisis has highlighted the pro-Russia stances of
some European countries, such as Hungary and Greece, and of some
European parties, mostly on the far-right of the political
spectrum. They see themselves as victims of the EU "technocracy"
and liberal moral values, and look for new allies to denounce the
current "mainstream" and its austerity measures. These groups found
new and unexpected allies in Russia. As seen from the Kremlin,
those who denounce Brussels and its submission to U.S. interests
are potential allies of a newly re-assertive Russia that sees
itself as the torchbearer of conservative values. Predating the
Kremlin's networks, the European connections of Alexander Dugin,
the fascist geopolitician and proponent of neo-Eurasianism, paved
the way for a new pan-European illiberal ideology based on an
updated reinterpretation of fascism. Although Dugin and the
European far-right belong to the same ideological world and can be
seen as two sides of the same coin, the alliance between Putin's
regime and the European far-right is more a marriage of convenience
than one of true love. This unique book examines the European
far-right's connections with Russia and untangles this puzzle by
tracing the ideological origins and individual paths that have
materialized in this permanent dialogue between Russia and Europe.
