All of us have in our minds a cartoon image of what an autocratic state looks like, with a bad man at the top. But in the 21st century, that cartoon bears little resemblance to reality. Nowadays, autocracies are run not by one bad guy, but by sophisticated networks composed of kleptocratic financial structures, security services and professional propagandists.

Conducted over nearly three decades, these revealing interviews offer listeners the opportunity to hear directly from the men who led Australia through periods of political, economic and social change.

Legendary author and futurist H. G. Wells turns his attention from imaginary worlds to the future of our own. Written in the turbulent years between the two world wars, Wells argues that humanity has become increasingly interconnected while remaining divided by nationalism, economic rivalry, and outdated political institutions. His “open conspiracy” is not a secret plot, but precisely the opposite: a public, voluntary movement of individuals committed to building a more rational, peaceful, and cooperative world.

Millions of Americans sense that something has gone wrong — in their children's schools, their workplaces, the media they used to trust. They've noticed a change in the atmosphere: what can be said, what must be affirmed, what happens to people who say the wrong thing. Most have stayed quiet...

“The egalitarianism inherent in the American founding is now poisoning America itself. We are the source of the infection only because we are also Patient Zero. Yet perhaps we can also be the cure. Julius Evola has supplied us with the ideas that can combat the toxins that have devastated our...

Die Ideologie hinter Peter Thiel, Donald Trump und Co. Vom Tech-Milliardär Peter Thiel bis hin zum russischen Ultranationalisten Alexander Dugin – neuerdings bemühen alle ein biblisches Motiv: den Katechon.
