Richard Walter Darré, Obergruppenführer in the SS and a senior member of Adolf Hitler's cabinet, served as the Reich Minister for Food and Agriculture until 1944. His ideas, as elaborated in
The Peasantry as the Lifeblood of the Nordic Race
and his thought-provoking sequel
, A New Nobility of Blood and Soil
, proved extremely influential on National Socialist thinking and greatly strengthened the party's agrarian and agriculturalist wing.
In this book, Darré examines Nordic civilizations and convincingly argues from multiple angles-biology, history, archaeology, animal breeding, religion, and philosophy-that without a robust and prosperous peasantry at the foundation, holding up the thinkers and decision makers at the top, their societies inevitably wither and fail. By demonstrating the stark differences between what he terms as the inherently peasant Nordic race and the various nomadic races, Darré captures a duality between the civilization-building and the civilization-destroying races of the world. He argues that the peasant and nomadic characteristics of these respective races are inherent to their being-coded in their genetics. Importantly, he puts forward the claim that the rootless and destructive nature of a nomadic race is not limited to wandering the steppe and raiding on horseback. In the modern era, these same nomadic races torch civilizations in much more sophisticated ways: exploitative capitalism, Bolshevism, and sexual degeneracy.
Now available for the first time in English, this foundational text is essential for anyone seeking a truly complete understanding of the ideology and worldview of National Socialism. Antelope Hill Publishing is proud to present this first-of-its-kind translation of
. Meticulously translated and researched by Angelo Geting, this book preserves and contextualizes a fundamental part of a world-changing historical movement.
