Traditional Britain Seminars 2014: John Morgan on Schools of Thought in the European 'Alternative Right'
by The Editor
Julius Evola coined the term “men among the ruins” to designate those few individuals who had the strength to stand by their convictions despite the near-total devastation and desecration of their ideals. This forced a complete re-evaluation of what the “true Right” meant and a return to first principles, and, fortunately, produced a number of interesting new strands of political, social, religious and cultural thought. These strands have tended to synthesize the traditional with the innovative, and even sometimes venture into territory that is typically considered “Leftist” or even anarchistic. The pertinent question today is, what are the most effective ideas and techniques that can be used to combat liberalism today?
Can Americans Be Conservative? - Richard Spencer - Conference Talk

by The Editor
"America has more in common with Britain, in general, and England, in particular, than with any other nation. And yet, when I travel here, I'm reminded of the power of national and differences, particularly when it come to something I'll be talking about today—mentality."
Conservation is Conservative

We are natural in the sense that we form emotional relationships with our families and communities and our countryside. We have a duty to pass on the environment we have inherited to our children, as they, in turn, will have a duty to pass it on to their children.'
The Retreat of Traditional Culture

by The Editor
By David Hamilton. High Culture is attacked as upper-class entertainment or a way the ruling elites achieve hegemony over the masses. The elitist argument is ideological rather than factual because working-class people are not barred from attending concerts. Politeness and good manners are essential but if they pay the fee they are entitled to watch a concert.
The Definition of Art

by The Editor
By David Hamilton. There is confusion about what art is. The qualities that make something art are intrinsic, not external. It is the artifice, the organising of elements, perspective, choice of colour etc, that make it art. The result is obtained by transforming reality and thus nature through human imagination and emotion and is realised by skill and technique. The word Beauty (or beautiful) is descriptive if used as an adjective to express the response of the beholder to an object, or if used within a clear context; if used as an abstract noun it is universal, and therefore meaningless.
