Alexander Gelewitsch Dugin

Alexander Dugin is a Russian philosopher, political activist, and ideologue known for his ultranationalist views and advocacy for a radical reimagining of Russian identity and geopolitics. Born in 1962 in Moscow, Dugin has been influential in promoting the concept of 'Neo-Eurasianism,' which seeks to establish a Russian-led geopolitical bloc. His writings often blend elements of fascism, occultism, and conspiracy theories, making him a controversial figure both in Russia and internationally. Dugin's influence has grown in recent years, particularly following Russia's military actions in Ukraine, as he has become a prominent voice in advocating for a militaristic and anti-Western ideology.
