Abstract:
Early Eurasianism in the 1920s-30s was not laden with antisemitism, while contemporary Eurasianism (e.g. expressed by Lev Gumilyov, Aleksandr Dugin) is antisemitic. Describes the evolution of Dugin's antisemitic views. In his book "Konservativnaya revolyutsiya" (1994), Dugin denounced Judaism as the force most hostile to Russia, and the Kabbalah as a dangerous xenophobic doctrine. However, in his article "Yevrei i Yevraziya" published in the newspaper "Zavtra" in 1997 he divided Jewry into two camps: "easterners" or hasidic Jews, and "westerners" or misnagdim (which parallels his split of humanity into "eurasianists" and "atlantists"), with only the "westerners" being seen as dangerous. States that maybe such "half-antisemitism" is preferable to full-fledged antisemitism. Notes that extreme nationalists in Russia made Dugin a target of their attacks.
