What is the place of philosophy in such polarised times, and how does it stand historically and today in relation to the antimodernist Far Right and its epigones? Is philosophy, and has it always been, on the side of the democrats, or is this an historical novelty and naïveté? Is it simply the case that today’s Alt-/New Rightist appropriations of figures associated with the European “conservative revolution” are “misreadings”, and on what the basis of what hermeneutic understanding, pre- or post-Nietzschean, could we make this categorical case? Why are only some philosophers taken up by the antiliberal Right, and not others?
