Patrick J. Buchanan: State of Emergency
The Third World Invasion and Conquest of America
Thomas Dunne Books/St Martin’s Griffin, 2007 Amazon.com
Book Description:
“The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities,” said Theodore Roosevelt. State of Emergency will demonstrate that this is exactly what is happening to America and may now be unstoppable.Back Cover:
In this passionate bestseller, Patrick Buchanan documents the mortal peril America faces from massive, uncontrolled immigration from the Third World.
Pat Buchanan is sounding the alarm. Since 9/11, more than four million illegal immigrants have crossed our borders – and more come in every day. Politicians in Washington either lack the political will or can’t agree on how to uphold the rule of law. The “melting pot” is cracked beyond repair, and the future of our nation is at stake.
State of Emergency reveals the frightening truth about the effects of uncontrolled immigration and warns of the end of our culture as we know it. With his trademark passion and eloquence, Buchanan details the roots of the crisis and lays out a practical plan for immigration reform and border security. With an estimated ten to fifteen million “illegals” already here and untold millons more poised to cross our borders, and with Congress seemingly paralyzed, few books could be as timely – or as important – as State of Emergency. It is essential reading for all Americans.
Reviews:
“Eminently worth reading and pondering.” The Washington Times
“[Buchanan] is a muscular writer, fully in command of the English language he feels is under siege. He is adept at linking history, statistics, and the writings of philosophers and economists to proffer forceful arguments. His book crackles.” The Washington Post
“Mr. Buchanan, in this book, is positively fearless. He is also right.” Tony Blankley, The Washington Times
JOB’s Comment:
This is the book on the writing of which Buchanan acknowledged Lawrence Auster’s influence.
Roger Kieran & Thomas Kenny: Socialism Betrayed
Behind the Collapse of the Soviet Union
International Publishers, 2004
“A fresh multi-faceted look at the overthrow of the Soviet State, the dismemberment of the Soviet Union, and the campaign to introduce capitalism from above. Roger Keeran and Thomas Kenny have given us a clear and powerful Marxist analysis of the momentous events which most directly shaped world politics today, the destruction of the USSR, the ‘Superpower’ of socialism.”
Norman Markowitz, author of The Rise and Fall of the People’s Century
Theodore Dalrymple
Theodore Dalrymple: Life at the Bottom
The Worldview that Makes the Underclass
Ivan R. Dee, 2003 (2001) Amazon.com
Back Cover:
Here is a searing account of life in the underclass and why it persists as it does, written by a British psychiatrist who treats the poor in a slum hospital and a prison in England. Dr. Dalrymple’s key insight in Life at the Bottom is that long-term poverty is caused not by economics but by a dysfunctional set of values, one that is continually reinforced by an elite culture searching for victims. His book draws upon scores of eye-opening, true-life vignettes that are by turns hilariously funny, chillingly horrifying, and all too revealing – sometimes all at once. And he writes in prose that transcends journalism and achieves the quality of literature.Dalrymple on Life at the Bottom
William F. Jasper: Global Tyranny…Step by Step
The United Nations and the Emerging New World Order
Western Islands, 1992 Amazon.com
Back Cover:
“With the UN we are contending against not only the natural tendency toward the accumulation of power in government, but also a long-standing, organized conspiracy of powerful forces to build, piece by piece, step by step, an omnipotent global government.” William F. Jasper
Mr. Jasper’s carefully documented book demolishes the illusion that the world is safer following the apparent demise of communism. A new world order under the United Nations would mean:
– An end to your God-given rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constutition
– National and personal disarmament
– Conscription into a UN army of police force to serve at the pleasure of the UN hierarchy
– Loss of parental rights to raise your children according to your personal beliefs
– Coercive population control that will determine when – or if – you may have children
– Communist-style dictatorship and ruthless terror, torture, and extermination to cow all peoples into submission

1 The New World Army
2 In the Name of Peace

Review:
“Skeptics and doubters have met their match; there is no way to discredit William Jasper’s message. This remarkable book is far more than just a compendium of facts; Jasper offers instruction in political theory, the wisdom of our founding patriots, the essence of human nature, and world politics from 1900 to the present.
Jasper’s goal is not merely to present relevant facts, but to present them in such a comprehensive, related way that their full meaning and significance open the reader’s mind to what is really happening in our time. No other writer known to this reviewer has covered this material or this time span with both the devotion to incisive detail and the ability to pull all the threads together that Jasper demonstrates. His picture makes sense out of incoherence. After 45 years of misinformation and obfuscation about the UN, here at last its role becomes crystal clear.” The New American

JOB’s Comment:
A revised and updated edition of this book was published in 2001 under the title The United Nations Exposed. Jasper is, as far as I have been able to see, the JBS’s best writer in recent decades. JBS’s publications are often characterized by the society’s onesided libertarianism and its too speculative interpretations and conspiracy theories. But these things are at a comparative minimum in this book. Jasper does overlook how it has in fact been possible in some cases to use the UN to oppose at least some aspects of and agents in the problematic kind of globalization that the organization often embodies and is a main vehicle of in today’s world. In some areas which are not among those extensively focused on by Jaspers, it is also important to note how his American perspective is different from and doesn’t always duly consider that of other and smaller nations. But the book (both the original and the updated edition) is quite well-written and well documented, although of course not without problematic interpretations. Much of the criticism of the UN is on target. This is a refined version of the JBS worldview, on a new and higher level, with a wealth of new facts. The countless naïve, ignorant, and thoughtless defenders of the UN must begin to take into account the kind of evidence here presented of at least part of the ideological roots of, the interests behind, and the true nature and purpose of the organization.
In other words, I don’t think it can all be dismissed as the product of the ignorance and stupidity of lower-level American capitalists who cannot understand communism and just read the latest stages of the development of capitalism itself, which threatens their interests, as identical with it. There were real, problematic aspects of communism at the time the JBS was founded, inasmuch as it had not yet understood the relation between its general grasp, in the broad perspective of history, of the development of human society in material, technical, scientific, economic and political terms, on the one hand, and the legacy of valid and essential moral and cultural values, and especially spirituality, on the other. Humanity still needed the adequate revelation of and form for the great spiritual tradition that was adapted to our age. But the higher-level monopoly and finance capitalism, which the UN to such a great extent always served, was and is indeed part of the same problematic main current of modernity.
Paul Gottfried: War and Democracy
Selected Essays 1975-2012
Arktos, 2012 Amazon.co.uk
Back Cover:
War and Democracy presents a selection of essays and reviews by Paul Gottfried written from 1975 to the present. They cover a variety of topics, both historical and contemporary, ranging from Oswald Spengler and the Frankfurt School to the destruction of classical liberalism, the dumbing down of higher education and the increasing dominance of administration in democratic governments. Most crucially, Gottfried sees Western governments as engaged in a messianic fantasy of bringing democracy to the world, an imperialist endeavor that has only brought disaster to all nations concerned, while liberties at home are being gradually curtailed.
A recurring theme is the transformation of the modern West, and how the meanings behind the ideas and concepts which helped to build our civilization have been altered to create a new type of society that bears a connection with that of our forefathers in name only. He points out that the history we are taught and the “Right” that we know today have become signifiers for a very different reality that is in many ways opposed to what they stood for previously. Gottfried remains tenacious in his defense of the original meaning and purpose behind the conservative movement, which favors organic social growth as opposed to imposition through force and an expanding bureaucracy.
“The notion that all countries must be brought – willingly or kicking and screaming – into the democratic fold is an invitation to belligerence. The notion that only democracies such as ours can be peaceful is what Edmund Burke called an ‘armed doctrine.’ … It is simply ridiculous to treat the pursuit of peace based on world democratic conversion as a peaceful enterprise. This is a barely disguised adaptation of the Communist goal of bringing about world harmony through worldwide socialist revolution.”
Paul Gottfried (b. 1941) has been one of America’s leading intellectual historians and paleoconservative thinkers for over 40 years, and is the author of many books, including the landmark Conservatism in America (2007). A critic of the neoconservative movement, he has warned against the growing lack of distinctions between the Democratic and Republican parties and the rise of the managerial state. He has been acquainted with many of the leading American political figures of recent decades, including Richard Nixon and Patrick Buchanan. He is Professor Emeritus of Humanities at Elizabethtown College and a Guggenheim recipient.

Sverigedemokraterna och framtiden
Åkesson på framtidsseminarium, 9/2:
Några ytterligare, anspråkslösa förslag inför framtiden:
Nolltolerans mot all grobiannationalism. Fortsatt nedtoning och avveckling av nationalismen nationalismen överhuvudtaget till förmån för sunt, måttfullt och av urskillning präglat försvar för nationell, historisk egenart och nationell lojalitet i det större sammanhanget av den med andra europeiska länder gemensamma europeiska identiteten (givetvis under fortsatt motstånd mot den nuvarande europeiska unionen, även om vissa av dennas strukturer kan användas och byggas vidare på). Övergång från att enbart vara Sverigedemokraterna till att också vara Europademokraterna, det verkliga svenska Europapartiet, med lika tonvikt på svenska och Europapartiet. Partiellt omtänkande av kulturpolitiken i ljuset av nyanserad, historiskt förankrad förståelse av de stora, centrala europeiska kulturtraditionerna och den svenska representationen och variationen av och bidragen till dessa under århundradena. Närmare samarbete med europeiska partier med samma eller liknande inriktning. Bejakande av den högre kosmopolitismen, i såväl europeiskt som globalt sammanhang. Fördjupat tänkande rörande förhållandet mellan olika kulturer. Befrämjande av mer vital intern debatt i ordnade former och inom rimliga gränser. Topprioritering av anställning i stor skala och med konkurrenskraftiga löner av akademiker och intellektuella intellektuella med adekvat utbildning och relevant erfarenhet, och av internutbildning av stor omfattning och intensitet i hela landet, ledd av sådana personer. Grundligare studium och därigenom utvecklad ideologisk förståelse av socialkonservatismen socialkonservatismen i termer av nyskapande traditionalism, alternativ modernitet, kvalificerad pluralism o.s.v. Fördjupad insikt och argumentation i frågan om människosyn, baserad på genuin humanistisk filosofi i traditionell mening. Avveckling av den alltför dominerande torftiga anda som skapas av många (inte alla) ingenjörstypers begränsade perspektiv på tillvaron och, ofta nog, oförståelse och i värsta fall likgiltighet, ja vulgära fientlighet mot den humanistiska kultur, i traditionell mening, som är grunden för det goda samhället. Omprövning av – och frikoppling av kriminalpolitiken från – ställningstagandet för datalagringsdirektivet, FRA-lagen och liknande företeelser, och större fokus på det nya övervakningssamhällets hot, och dess verkliga innebörd, i ett internationellt perspektiv. Tydligare post-paleokonservativ profil i utrikes- och försvarspolitiken, åtminstone så länge de ledande NATO-länderna och de dominerande, stora internationella organisationerna uppvisar den hittillsvarande problematiska ideologiska och politiska inriktningen. Snabb utfasning av kvarstående element av tröttsamt förutsägbar lägre populism populism populism populism. Kraftfullt bekämpande av sjuklig misstänksamhet och unk-sluten, självmarginaliserande och -isolerande bunkersektmentalitet som avvisar och stöter bort sympatisörer, ja medlemmar, och avskräcker rätt typ av personer som delar de politiska åsikterna och övervägt att ta steget till partiet. Avståndstagande från nätpublikationer nätpublikationer som inte genomgående håller god ton och ibland direkt eller indirekt besmutsar partiet och bringar det i vanrykte. Omedelbart uppbyggande, under ledning av den nämnda nya kompetensen, av egna, seriösa media av annat slag och på annan nivå.
John Upton: The System of Antichrist
Truth and Falsehood i Postmodernism and the New Age

Sophia Perennis, 2001
Back cover:
The System of Antichrist examines the present religious and cultural scene from the standpoint of traditional metaphysics and critiques the New Age spiritualities within their postmodern context. Its many references to René Guénon and Frithjof Schuon also help introduce these important but little-known “traditionalist” thinkers.
The book presents lore relating to the ‘latter days’ of the present cycle from the vantage point of comparative religion, drawing upon relevant doctrines from Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Zoroastrianism, and the Native American traditions. It also speculates upon the social, psychic, and spiritual nature of that being known to Christianity, Judaism, and Islam as the Antichrist, presenting him as both an individual and a system and warning those willing to be warned against the spiritual seduction and terror he represents, and against the regime which will be-and is-the social expression of that seduction and that terror.
Finally, in tracing the roots of Antichrist in the fallen nature of man, the author sketches the particular quality of spirituality proper to apocalyptic times, the dangers it faces, the unique opportunities open to it. And along the way he describes his own course from the “spiritual revolution” of the 1960s, through the world of New Age spiritualities, to the threshold of traditional esoterism and metaphysics. As he says, speaking of the angst that characterizes the modern world: “The specific medicine for the shock of despair is the deeper shock of meaning. Nothing but the weight of eternity, breaking through the thin, brittle shell of the postmodern sky, can set us on our feet.”
“Charles Upton is a serious thinker from whom I have learned much. His writing merits close attention.”
