THE Conservative Revolution first rose to the fore during the German Weimar Republic between 1918 and 1933, the period marking the end of the First World War and the final consolidation of Nazi totalitarianism. Although this phenomenon is usually associated with conservative and reactionary elements, many of whom were fiercely nationalistic, there were many interactions and convergences with Anarchist and Socialist elements that were also opposed to the twin evils of capitalism and Marxism. The twenty-two chapters in this remarkable new volume explore the political, cultural and militaristic aspects of the Conservative Revolution in both Germany and elsewhere. It is crucial for understanding both how and why principled activists and fighters on all sides were divided by those who wish to cling onto power. Needless to say, it is not too dissimilar to the situation we find ourselves in today.
