Alain de Benoist: View from the Right Volume I

A Critical Anthology of Contemporary Ideas

View from the Right was originally published in French in 1977, during the period when Alain de Benoist’s GRECE think tank was at the height of its influence. This book is a collection of essays and profiles that explore various thinkers and figures who, in Benoist's view, embody the defining elements of the diverse strands of Right-wing thought.

Upon its release, it made a significant impact on the French political and intellectual landscapes, earning the prestigious Grand Prize from the historic French Academy in 1978.

Regarded as one of the most important modern French works on political philosophy, View from the Right stands as the fundamental statement of the principles of the New Right during its formative years.

This first volume, part of a three-volume translation by Arktos, serves as an encyclopaedic history of ideas. It delves into the philosophical, spiritual, scientific, and cultural-historical foundations of the European heritage.
