According to Alexander Dugin, the twenty-first century will be defined by the conflict between Eurasianists and Atlanticists. The Eurasianists defend the need for every people and culture on Earth to be allowed to develop in its own way, free of interference, and in accordance with their own particular values. Eurasianists thus stand for tradition and for the blossoming variety of cultures, and a world in which no single power holds sway over all the others. Opposing them are the Atlanticists. They stand for ultra-liberalism in both economics and values, stopping at nothing to expand their influence to every corner of the globe, unleashing war, terror, and injustice on all who oppose them, both at home and abroad. This camp is represented by the United States and its allies around the world, who seek to maintain America's unipolar hegemony over the Earth. The Eurasianists believe that only a strong Russia, working together with all those who oppose Atlanticism worldwide, can stop them and bring about the multipolar world they desire. This book introduces their basic ideas. Eurasianism is on the rise in Russia today, and the Kremlin's geopolitical policies are largely based on its tenets, as has been acknowledged by Vladimir Putin himself. It is reshaping Russia's geopolitics, and its influence is already changing the course of world history. "Essentially, the unipolar world is simply a means of justifying dictatorship over people and countries. [...] I think that we need a new version of interdependence. [...] This is particularly relevant given the strengthening and growth of certain regions on the planet, which process objectively requires institutionalization of such new poles, creating powerful regional organizations and developing rules for their interaction. Cooperation between these centers would seriously add to the stability of global security, policy and economy." - Vladimir Putin, Valdai Club, October 24, 2014 Alexander Dugin (b. 1962) is one of the best-known writers and political commentators in post-Soviet Russia, having been active in politics there since the 1980s. In addition to the many books he has authored on political, philosophical, and spiritual topics, he is the leader of the International Eurasia Movement, which he founded. For more than a decade, he has been an advisor to Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin on geopolitical matters. Arktos published his book, The Fourth Political Theory, in 2012, and Putin vs Putin: Vladimir Putin Viewed from the Right in 2014.

亚历山大-杜金认为，二十一世纪将由欧亚主义者和大西洋主义者之间的冲突来定义。欧亚主义者捍卫地球上的每一个民族和文化都需要被允许以自己的方式发展，不受干扰，并符合他们自己的特殊价值观。因此，欧亚主义者支持传统，支持各种文化的蓬勃发展，支持一个没有任何一个大国能左右所有其他国家的世界。与他们相对的是大西洋主义者。他们在经济和价值观方面都代表着极端自由主义，不惜一切代价将其影响力扩大到全球的每一个角落，对国内外所有反对他们的人发动战争、恐怖和不公正。这个阵营的代表是美国及其在世界各地的盟友，他们试图维持美国在地球上的单极霸权。欧亚主义者认为，只有一个强大的俄罗斯，与全世界所有反对大西洋主义的人合作，才能阻止他们，并带来他们渴望的多极世界。本书介绍了他们的基本观点。欧亚主义今天正在俄罗斯兴起，克里姆林宫的地缘政治政策主要基于其信条，这一点普京本人也承认。它正在重塑俄罗斯的地缘政治，其影响已经在改变世界历史的进程。"从本质上讲，单极世界只是一种为对人民和国家的独裁统治辩护的手段。[......]我认为，我们需要一个新版本的相互依存关系。[......]鉴于地球上某些地区的加强和增长，这一点尤其重要，这一过程客观上需要将这种新的两极制度化，建立强大的区域组织，并为其互动制定规则。这些中心之间的合作将严重增加全球安全、政策和经济的稳定性"。- 弗拉基米尔-普京，瓦尔代俱乐部，2014年10月24日 亚历山大-杜金（1962年生）是后苏联时期俄罗斯最知名的作家和政治评论家之一，自20世纪80年代以来一直活跃在那里的政治领域。除了他撰写的许多关于政治、哲学和精神主题的书籍外，他还是他创立的国际欧亚运动的领导人。十多年来，他一直是弗拉基米尔-普京和克里姆林宫的地缘政治事务顾问。阿克托斯于2012年出版了他的书《第四政治理论》，以及《普京与普京》。2014年出版了《从右翼看普京》。
