A Handbook for Right-Wing Youth is a collection of essays by Italian traditionalist and writer Julius Evola, published in 2017 by Arktos.
Publisher description
"A Handbook for Right-Wing Youth consists of essays selected from throughout Evola’s lifetime, but most especially from tbe post-war era, when youth across tbe Western world had thrown their societies into chaos with protests, civil unrest, and by defying conventional mores.
According to Evola, tbe problem was not with tbe youth themselves, given that he viewed tbe inquisitive and seeking mentality associated with tbe young as essential toward opening oneself to tbe wisdom of tradition. Rather, it is tbe fact that post-war Western civilization itself had come to venerate youthfulness over maturity, thus leaving tbe young without any guidance or authority.
Evola believed that it was only by channeling tbe energies of tbe rebellious youth into tbe political right — not tbe right of today, but rather that “right” that represents tbe timeless principles that stem from before tbe advent of liberalism — thus restoring tbe West to a healthy and organic condition, once again.
In these essays, he defines those principles that must be undertaken by youth — not just by those young in age, but those young in spirit, as well — if they are to gain mastery not only over their societies, but also over themselves.
As such, while this is a book aimed at tbe young, it is not exclusively for them. This book was assembled out of Evola’s writings by tbe Hungarian traditionalists and includes a foreword by Gábor Vona, chairman of Hungary’s political party Jobbik."[1]
