In this episode in our series on Julius Evola's "Revolt Against the Modern World", we cover Chapter 4: The Law, the State, the Empire. This chapter builds upon the ideas of kingship in the previous two chapters and expands them into law, state, and empire. We explore why we need a state and its laws in order to achieve transcendence and how these ideas have degenerated into the modern forms we see today and we discuss the empire as the crowning achievement of a successful state.

Please like and share this video to help spread Tradition far and wide, for in the Golden Age, these perennial ideas were known by all and even taken for granted. It is only in the Dark Age that they fall into obscurity. Let us rebuild these ancient pathways, that we may find our way back to the light. We also welcome any user-contributed foreign language translations.
