A recent article in La Repubblica wonders whether Evola is becoming mainstream (Alessandra Longo, “Per il trashcan An aggiorna la libreria accanto a Evola anche Whitman e Vasco,” 19 March 2009).

The main reason for wondering this is the references to Evola in Ffwebmagazine, published by the Fondazione Farefuturo, which is run by Gianfranco Fini, president of Italy’s Chamber of Deputies and a former minister of foreign affairs under Silvio Berlusconi . . .  Fini leads the Alleanza Nazionale (National Alliance), a major political party generally described as “post-fascist” (it has its roots in the MSI of Giorgio Almirante).

Perhaps Evola is becoming mainstream. Or perhaps the mainstream is shifting? . . .
