Slaves from the North: Finns and Karelians in the East European Slave Trade, 900–1600
Brill, Studies in Global Slavery, Volume 5, 2019

While the transatlantic slave trade—with its millions of African captives, its plantation economies, and its enduring racial legacy—has commanded the attention of scholars and the public for generations, another vast machinery of enslavement operated across the eastern half of the continent for centuries, harvesting lives from the forests of Finland and Karelia to the steppes of Central Asia and the slave markets of Istanbul, Cairo, and Bukhara.

In March 2026, the United Nations passed a resolution declaring the transatlantic slave trade the gravest crime against humanity. The phrasing is sweeping and unequivocal, reflecting the immense suffering associated with the Atlantic system. Yet the certainty of this claim sits uneasily with the historical record.

As I have written before, while it is an undeniable truth that NATO and even the European Union, which is much worse than NATO, is preferable to the Russian Federation due to the incontestable fact that pro-white organizations can operate more freely in the former than in the latter, my ideal scenario is Eastern Europe breaking away from NATO and forming its own military alliance with its headquarters in Warsaw, consisting of the following countries in no particular order: (more…)

La Nouvelle Librairie has begun publishing Les Carnets Rebelles (The Rebel’s Notebooks) by Dominique Venner.
