Michael Millerman

Bio

"Michael Millerman is an award-winning political philosophy scholar and teacher. He earned his PhD in Political Science from the University of Toronto in 2018 for his work on Heidegger and political theory. His first book, Beginning with Heidegger: Strauss, Rorty, Derrida, Dugin and The Philosophical Constitution of the Political, has been called “an essential guide to passionate thinking.”

Today he is one of the foremost experts on Alexander Dugin, “the most dangerous philosopher in the world,” several of whose books he has translated.

At his online school (MillermanSchool.com), Michael offers courses on Plato, Aristotle, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Strauss, Dugin, and others. He also co-founded VisionXForm (VisionXForm.com), an applied philosophy program for entrepreneurs.

He lives in Montreal with his wife and three children."

Millerman and Dugin

Erik Haines:

" The figure who has carried Dugin’s project from Russian into Anglophone political philosophy with the most sustained intellectual seriousness is Michael Millerman , whose Heideggerian reading of Dugin emerged from his University of Toronto PhD dissertation on Heidegger and was published as Beginning with Heidegger: Strauss, Rorty, Derrida, Dugin and the Philosophical Constitution of the Political (Arktos Media), followed by Inside “Putin’s Brain”: The Political Philosophy of Alexander Dugin (2022). Millerman has translated seven of Dugin’s books into English—including The Fourth Political Theory (as co-translator), The Rise of the Fourth Political Theory, Political Platonism, Ethnos and Society, and Theory of a Multipolar World—and Benjamin Teitelbaum has called him “the leading English-language interpreter of Dugin’s thought.” His digital infrastructure—the Millerman School, the Substack, the YouTube channel with over 36,000 subscribers—does for the New Right cluster what Perspectiva and the Daily Wire podcast network do for romantic-liberalism and its right-pole convergence: it is the Anglophone institutional carrier through which the philosophical project travels into the educated readership the formation orients toward. ... Millerman writes from Toronto, from the same Canadian academic infrastructure that produced Peterson and Vervaeke, registers something the Canadian intellectual situation."
