The Worthy House (Charles Haywood)

This is one of my favorite reviews, of a book that is extremely important today. Jünger foresaw both our present moment, and what should be done. You should read this book, and also its companion Eumeswil (and my interpretations of both). (This article was first published October 13, 2018.)

A timely work from 1921, analyzing in detail the history and jurisprudential basis of, and for, dictatorship in the context of modern Western societies.

As I discuss in the audio, I am beginning to regularly announce on audio platforms opportunities to view appearances of me, that is to say, Worthy House content, that occurs on the platforms of others. For example, I may have appeared on another podcast, or written an article in a magazine—both of which have happened recently, in fact. So—are you looking for doomer optimism? Look no further. Now available across all platforms is my discussion with Alex Kaschuta, host of The Subversive Podcast. We talk about regime fragility, what is to come, Space, and how good our future can be! You can find the podcast here:   Audio: https://anchor.fm/aksubversive/episodes/Charles-Haywood---Post-Liberal-Doomer-Optimism-e17lnge   Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pV9tI5jDiuw And you can, and should, subscribe to Kaschuta’s Patreon, where you will get early releases and other bonuses.

No politics today. Rather, of psychedelic drugs, with particular emphasis on whether they reveal hidden knowledge and their relationship to religion.

A classic work on the underclass, which I use to define my program for distinguishing between the deserving and the undeserving poor, and treating each with justice. Plus, a variety of thoughts on modern Great Britain, none complimentary. (This article was first published September 29, 2018.)

A much-discussed, yet somewhat overrated, book from a quarter century ago. Nothing in our society has gotten better since then, but as it is said, past performance is no guarantee of future results.

As Carl Schmitt comes back into fashion, I am reading all his works.  This is his very first, from 1919, an excoriation of those who prioritize aesthetics over politics, and who refuse to make decisions when decisions are necessary.

This is the book that explains everything that matters at this moment. You must read it.  Although I wrote this nearly five years ago, it has not aged a day, and remains, I think, one of my most useful articles. (This article was first published January 19, 2017.)

James Burnham's classic work on power in politics.  Perhaps too gnostic, but nonetheless with much insight into today, particularly with respect to "democratic totalitarianism," on full display in the present moment.
