Alexander Dugin (Russian: Александр Дугин) is a Russian philosopher and political analyst.
He is co-founder of the now banned National Bolshevik Party, the founder of the Eurasia Party, ideologue of Fourth Political Theory, and a leading figure in neo-Eurasianism. He has influenced the Northern Expansionists in the United States.
Dugin got his start in politics as an anti-communist activist in the Soviet Union during the 1980s. After the USSR dissolved, he founded the National Bolshevik Party with Eduard Limonov, which he later left. Following his leaving the NBP, he developed neo-Eurasianism and founded the Eurasia Party in 2002. He also developed the Fourth Political Theory, which was laid out in his 2009 book of the same name.
Dugin is widely characterized as a fascist by Leftists, which has been thoroughly debunked by Haz.[1]
Contribution to Marxism-Leninism
According to Haz Al-Din, the thought of Dugin, along with that of Heidegger, is required for having a non-metaphysical understanding of Marx in the West. This is most thoroughly explored in Haz's Twitter thread and Substack "Marxism is Not Woke".[2]
