Alexander Dugin outlines Russia's new ideology of traditional values and historical enlightenment, positioning the West as an adversary and emphasizing the need to apply this ideology to shape Russia’s future.

Russia now has an ideology: traditional values and historical enlightenment. Additionally, it asserts Russia as a state-civilization (the Russian world) in the context of multipolarity. This establishes a vertical, unchanging axis.

The West has been declared a civilizational adversary, meaning liberalism is over. Liberalism is seen as a destructive ideology, and a liberal is equated to a foreign agent.

Greater Humanity (which includes everyone except the West and its slaves) are allies and partners, with certain privileged partners being China, India, Iran, and North Korea.

This is a full-fledged ideology in every sense. It is now crucial to apply this ideology in practice in such a way that it opens the road to the future. We need to explore and unlock its internal potential and inherent energies. They undoubtedly exist. Just the struggle against the West as an alternative civilization is significant! This alone is a lot. We reject, first and foremost, the modern era in the West — anti-Christianity, atheism, liberalism, individualism, LGBT, and postmodernism. But at some point, we will also need to confront capitalism, a Western phenomenon that is detestable and anti-Russian. Henceforth, the West is not an object for blind imitation, but for endless criticism. However, through this criticism, our own alternative affirmations will emerge — Orthodoxy, a fervent and active faith, the connection between things and people, solidarity, love, a loyal and united family, heroism, a leap from becoming to being, a great will to build the state, justice, and the salvation of humanity and the world from the impending hell.

The West claims universality — dictating to everyone else what constitutes a person, life, body, time, space, society, politics, and economy. Against this, we, as a state-civilization, are now putting forth our conception of the Russian person, Russian life, Russian body, Russian time, Russian space, Russian society, Russian politics, and Russian economy. This is exciting. All of this not only needs to be defended but rediscovered and even recreated. And what does not exist must be imagined, designed, and built.

The first part is the eradication of Westernism. The second is the creation of a Russian future. Dismantling imitative liberalism is not very difficult. This process is now in full swing. For now, liberalism is being replaced with something neutral, indefinite, obedient, but unclear. This is fine — it is the first phase of ideological transformation. Remove those who know what and how to do things in an anti-Russian way. Replace them with those who do not know what and how to do things but understand that they definitely should not follow the dictates of the West or the wishes of Russophobes and liberals.

On the horizon is the second phase: the emergence of people dedicated to doing everything in a distinctly Russian way, following traditional values and historical enlightenment. These people are eager to learn how to achieve this and understand its true meaning. They are ready to learn, try, experiment, and create. The Russian future is open. It has no dogmas; it is inspired by the openness of eternity and reaches out to God’s providence, so that through Russians, God himself will act, creating a better world with our hands, as it was intended, as Christ redeemed it. We must become builders of the Kingdom.

Our ideology is the construction of the New Jerusalem. It is entirely focused on the future, which means it is eternal.
