Dublin – Sunday the 22nd of January brought forth comrades from Flanders and France for a solidarity benefit and information night in support of the Afrikaner peoples hosted by Solidariteit-Identiteit in conjunction with the Dublin branch of the cultural organisation Studia Europae. The conference, the first event of the year for Studia Europae, was well attended by a mixed audience of both young and old from right across Ireland and indeed by a number of very welcome guests from other movements elsewhere in Europe.

Solidariteit-Identiteit is the Flanders based affiliate of Solidarite-Identites, a French non-profit organisation with friendly ties to CasaPound Italia, whose aim is to provide help and support to peoples struggling for their survival, the preservation of their culture and the defence of their identity.

The weekend kicked off with a number of small informal gatherings throughout the capital before the main event on Sunday. During the event a talk was delivered by a representative of Solidariteit-Identiteit followed by a discussion period over some food and drink.

Our friends from Solidariteit-Identiteit were very impressed with the Dublin meeting – this being a first time in Ireland for one – and by the level of support received from their Irish audience. A fundraiser and merchandise sale helped to raise a generous sum for the organisation whose tremendous work for the Afrikaner community does not go unnoticed by comrades here in Ireland.

As usual, Studia Europae had on sale a number of publications and music titles – both proving very popular.

Studia Europae and Folk Advance Éireann would like to thank all those who attended giving both their time and money towards a great cause. Special thanks to our overseas comrades who were in attendance.

Beir Bua!

The regulation and positive adaptation of behaviour through sanction, reward and exercise.

Discipline is the basis of all education and every civilisation. Permissive “pedagogical” theories cannot but lead to the failure to transmit knowledge, as is so evident today. The belief that “self-discipline” is possible for all is a tragic perversion of aristocratic individualism. Only superior beings are capable of self-discipline, not common man. But, against common sense and overwhelming evidence, egalitarian ideology refuses to acknowledge that there are differences between those capable of self-discipline and those who aren’t.

The refusal to accept legally-established disciplines leads to the most savage oppression, to the law of the jungle. Egalitarian ideology associates discipline and order with their excesses, that is, with arbitrary dictatorship. But just the contrary is the case, for freedom and justice are founded on rigorous social discipline. The anthropologist Arnold Gehlen, like the ethologist Konrad Lorenz, has shown that man, by his very biological nature, is “a being of culture” (Kulturwesen), that is, “a being of discipline” (Zuchtwesen). It’s patently obvious that so-called defenders of freedom (actually licensed) challenged social disciplines in the name of freedom and the rule of law, but the social and political model they advocate has the effect of destroying all freedom, all law, all social justice: as seen in the spread of delinquency and insecurity, the collapse of public education and equal opportunity, the toleration of delinquents and gangsters, privileges for influential or violent pressure groups, etc. – all this comes at the expense of the citizen’s security. We shouldn’t be afraid to say that every society refusing to uphold law and order, that is, collective discipline, is ripe for tyranny and the loss of public freedoms.

The judicial imposture of the dominant ideology endeavours to make us believe the absence of social discipline is a guarantee public freedom, insofar as it wards off the spectre of a “police state”. But just the opposite is true. The ideology of license is the foundation of contemporary despotism. The greatest of liberalism’s impostures has been to confuse indiscipline with freedom and freedom with anarchy.

The anti-disciplinary societies of today are hardly exempt from repression and other, more cloaked, forms of totalitarianism. Repression has merely changed its object and nature. The rigors of the law, fiscally and punitively, now fall on the “transparent citizen”, but the number of no-go zones keeps expanding, just as delinquency and other criminal activities are increasingly tolerated. Indeed, all of kinds of violent delinquencies have grown. “Hate speech” (i.e, Identitarian speech) or “homophobia” is strictly repressed, as the thought police demand, but drugs are decriminalized, the threshold for urban delinquency is raised, secularism is violated in favour of Islam, terrorists and urban rioters are appeased, etc.

These are the signs of a society whose fundamental values have become suicidal – a society which represses and censors everything that is vital and encourages everything that is culturally and biologically pathological.

Dublin – Sunday November 6 saw the onset of yet another successful conference held by Studia Europae, in conjunction with FAÉ and Fóram Átha Cliath, following on a series of similar events held over the past year.

On this occasion the main speaker, another prominent international guest, was Dr. Tomislav Sunić of Croatia and the US. This was Dr. Sunić’s first time in Ireland and thus his first time to address an Irish audience.

For those who do not already know of Dr. Sunić and his work, he is an author, translator, former Croatian diplomat and a former US professor of political science. He currently also serves on the board of directors of the American Third Position Party (A3P). He has written numerous books, both in English and French, pertaining to politics, metapolitics and European identity. His most recent publication ‘Postmortem Report – Cultural Examinations from Postmodernity’ forwarded by Professor Kevin MacDonald brings together a collection of his essays of the past decade dealing with topics that include religion, cultural pessimism, race, liberalism, democracy, multiculturalism and communism.

The third edition of his book ‘Against Democracy and Equality – The European New Right’ has also recently hit the shelves. Published by Arktos Media, who also had a collection of their books on sale through Studia Europae, it was one of a number of cultural and metapolitical titles by various publishers available on the day of the event. Music and stickers could also be found at the table.

Alongside the Irish audience were other comrades from various European movements who came to show their support and solidarity.

The topic of Dr. Sunić’s lecture was “The Balkanisation of Europe and Ernst Jünger’s Anarch and the endtimes”. The turnout for the conference was greater than anticipated. Towards the end of the speech people put forward questions to Tom and shared their ideas openly. Many books were purchased during and after the event, both from Studia Europae and Dr. Sunić directly. Dr. Sunić then took the time to sign copies of his books and chat with those in attendence.

The second day, Dr. Sunić enjoyed the company of a smaller number of folks who again met in the centre of Dublin to discuss in greater detail ideas and tactics for future development of European Identity and Civilization.

Overall the conference was an absolute success and already there are plans in the works to have another prominent speaker invited over very soon. More details to come!

Fóram Átha Cliath would again like to thank all those who attended and of extend our gratitude to Dr. Sunić for his visit.

Ní threabhadh tú pairc go brách á chasadh timpeall i do intinn! Onward!
