Description

This manifesto remains the only attempt to date by GRECE, the primary New Right organization in France, to summarize its principles and key concepts. It was written in 1999 by Alain de Benoist, GRECE’s founder, and Charles Champetier on the occasion of GRECE’s 30th anniversary. It offers a strong argument in favor of the right to difference among cultures and civilizations, and the right of peoples to defend themselves from cultural homogenization. It also offers a vision of a regenerated Europe which will find its strength in a return to its authentic values and traditions, in opposition to the new imperialism of multiculturalism and the global marketplace.

Alain de Benoist

Alain de Benoist is the leading thinker behind the European ‘New Right’ movement, a metapolitical school of thought he helped found in France in 1968 with the establishment of GRECE (Research and Study Group for European Civilisation). To this day, he remains its primary representative, even while rejecting the label ‘New Right’ since he considers himself to fall outside the Left/Right dichotomy. He lives in Paris and continues to write and give lectures and interviews. Arktos has previously published his books The Problem of Democracy (2011), Beyond Human Rights (2011), Manifesto for a European Renaissance (2012), Carl Schmitt Today (2013), On the Brink of the Abyss (2015), The Indo-Europeans (2016), View from the Right (2017), and Runes and the Origins of Writing (2018).
