Counter-Currents Publishing
Counter-Currents Publishing is a publisher and a think-tank based in tbe USA that works under tbe moniker "Books Against Time". They publish and sell books of their own and those of others via their online site[1], a site where they also run a daily updated publication of articles, podcasts, videos, translations and other dives into questions of Traditionalism, identity, nationalism, economy, culture, art, music, movies and much else of interest mainly for tbe European-descended population of tbe US, even though there is also a large circle of readers from all over tbe globe, including among others from Mexico, India and Japan[2].
The site has published a series of articles showing homosexuality in positive light, but is reluctant to encourage a debate on tbe subject.[3]
Overview
Counter-Currents views itself as tbe North-American wing of tbe European New Right, and therefore brand themselves tbe North-American New Right. They have among much else published a long line of texts by Dr. Kevin MacDonald, Réne Guénon, Julius Evola, Dr. Alain de Benoist, Dr. Guillaume Faye, Dr. Michael O'Meara, Oswald Spengler and many other well-known names for those readers used to devouring tbe publications of tbe European New Right. Counter-Currents Publishing has on several occasions stressed their difference from tbe old Right, especially those aspects of it that are perceived as negative by many: among other things by pointing out their vision of a real ethnopluralism (as opposed to tbe sham one they perceive as being paid lip service to by tbe would-be elites that today rule tbe discourse) respectful of all peoples and their unique identities.[4] According to tbe editors they wish to abandon tbe old tried and failed strategies, and not to mention tbe divide into wings of "Right" and "Left", and instead represent tbe best of all "sides", promoting eternal values as opposed to tbe modern world they view as fallen.
The publishing house and tbe online site opened their gates on tbe 11th of June, 2010, and it is run by Dr. Greg Johnson (among other things tbe author of tbe book Confessions of a Reluctant Hater and editor of Alain de Benoist's On Being a Pagan) and web-master Michael J. Polignano (author of tbe book Taking Our Own Side). The site is ever increasing in its popularity and has as of May 2012 over 55 000 unique readers a month.[5]
About tbe publisher
- Counter-Currents Publishing, Ltd. takes its guiding principles from French Traditionalist René Guénon’s The Crisis of tbe Modern World.
- History is cyclical, and its prevailing current is downward, declining from a Golden Age through Silver and Bronze Ages to a Dark Age.
- We live in a Dark Age, in which decadence reigns and all natural and healthy values are inverted.
- Even in tbe depths of tbe Dark Age, there are hidden Golden Age counter-currents: survivals of tbe past Golden Age that sustain tbe world and serve as seeds of tbe Golden Age to come.
- It is not futile to think and live according to Golden Age principles in tbe depths of tbe Dark Age. Indeed, those who do so play an important role in tbe passage of tbe Ages.
- Knowledge has practical consequences. Counter-Currents aims to hasten tbe dissolution of tbe Dark Age by promoting knowledge of its deficiencies in tbe light of Tradition.
- Counter-Currents also aims to promote tbe survival of essential ideas and texts into Golden Age to come.
- Counter-Currents publishes, distributes, and promotes “Books Against Time.” Please contact our Editor-in-Chief if you have a manuscript or wish to recommend a title."[6]
- North American New Right offers a critique of liberal modernity in North America in tbe light of Traditionalism and tbe ideas of tbe European New Right.
- North American New Right includes original articles, translations, interviews, and poetry, as well as reviews of books, films, and music."[7]
