| Opplysninger | "The power of the state should be in the hands of the punks": the literary origins of a protest movement -- Making post-Soviet counterpublics: the aesthetics of Limonka and the National-Bolshevik Party -- Bohemianism, political militancy, and resistance to modernity: The NBP as social practice -- Aleksandr Dugin's conservative postmodernism -- A conservative Boheme: the Eurasia movement as an aesthetic-political project.. - "The National Bolshevik Party, founded in the mid-1990s by Eduard Limonov and Aleksandr Dugin, began as an attempt to combine radically different ideologies: bolshevism and nationalism. In the years that followed, Limonov, Dugin, and the movements they led underwent dramatic shifts that eventually led to the support of Putin's conservative, imperialist regime over social justice and fundamental civil liberties. To illuminate the role of these right-wing ideas in contemporary Russian society, Fabrizio Fenghi examines the public pronouncements and aesthetics of this influential movement. He analyzes a diverse range of media, including novels, art exhibitions, performances, seminars, punk rock concerts, and even protest actions. His interviews with key figures reveal an attempt to create an alternative intellectual class, or a "counter-intelligensia." This volume shows how certain forms of art can transform into political action through the creation of new languages, institutions, and modes of collective participation"--
