Réflexions sur le paganisme d’extrême droite

Abstract

The neo-paganism, in its ethnocentric variant, becomes one of the most important spiritualities of the radical far right. It offers for these activists the possibility to reconnect with an ethnic/cultural identity that the universalism of Christianity has been destroyed. It allows, also, from a more strategic perspective, to develop synergies between groups and individuals scattered throughout the world. These synergies are manifested by an intellectual reciprocation, made of borrowing and re-reading. Theses exchanges are giving to this trend of the extreme right a particular intellectual coloring, which gives it a unique identity.
