I chat to rogue scholar Michael Millerman about what political philosophy can teach us in a post-liberal age.

We also talk about:

  • Having roots in Eastern Europe as a motivation for learning political philosophy
  • Post-liberalism as a reality beyond liberalism, communism, and fascism
  • What does Alexander Dugin add to the conversation?
  • Questioning the Individual and replacing him with different other subjectivities.
  • “Freedom means the freedom to reject liberalism”
  • Going back to the roots of our tradition to understand the fruits of it
  • Each Ethnos and the possibility of universal political principles - does Ango-Saxon politics work in Eastern Europe?
  • Can everyone get a liberal education?
  • Infohazards in understanding political philosophy.
  • The Marketplace of Ideas as a filter for truth.
  • Eastern Mysticism and how it helps us see nuance in “the self”
  • Being embodied vs. being in your body - Gnosticism as a fundamental imbalance.

Michael's recommended subversives are Leo Strauss, Alexander Dugin, and Martin Heidegger.
