Alexander Dugin responds to labels like fascist, ultra-nationalist and Putins’ Rasputin

Interview with Russian professor and philosopher, Alexander Dugin, author of The Fourth Political Theory and numerous other books.

Independent blogger and documentarist, Jesper Larsen, interviews professor Dugin at his office in Moscow, shortly before new year 2017/2018.

In this part one I confront professor Dugin with the repeated claims in Western media portraying him as ultra-right-wing ideologue. For instance, I ask Dugin to comment on his Wikipedia entry that states that “he is known for his Fascist views”.

My motivation for asking this question was, get a coherent response from the accused himself.

Western audience will often come across these claims where Dugin is used to scare people. My aim is to give viewers access to a coherent and explanatory response from the accused himself. This is especially worth watching for people who have not read any of Dugins writings.

Dugin explains why he is demonized and why his ideas are perverted. The West wants to impose it own history, values and judgements upon other cultures in disguise of our own values being “universal”. This path will create conflict as it would if other cultures imposed their system on us.

The video and transcript below.

I hope audience already familiar with Dugins writings will enjoy this interview too. In part two I will ask Dugin about the concept of “Russian World”. In Western media this is portrayed as something in between rebuilding Soviet Union or The Russian Empire. So I ask Dugin where the borders should be drawn.

Transcript will be added later when I am more familiar with Steemit and Dtube.
