This article investigates Aleksandr Dugin’s intellectual trajectory from his earlier neo-Eurasianist paradigm to his more recent articulation of a loosely configured multipolarist discourse that resonates with, and is increasingly entangled in, the ideological constellation of the American Alt-right and the broader Trumpist galaxy. Through an inductive and deductive qualitative thematic analysis of Dugin’s published works and social media interventions, the study contends that his recent thought represents not merely a reconfiguration of geopolitical orientation but a profound epistemic rupture—namely, the abandonment of neo-Eurasianist geopolitics in favour of an ideational and transnational conservative imaginary aimed at the construction of a broad anti-liberal front. Dugin’s reconfiguration privileges symbolic and normative dichotomies—such as traditionalism and conservatism versus liberal globalism—over material or strategic geopolitics, thereby enacting a process of de-Eurasianisation and, to a significant extent, de-geopoliticisation within his conceptual framework. The article situates this ideological recalibration within the broader contestations of the liberal international order, underscoring its affinities with American Trumpism, its performative enactment of a transnational conservative project, and its departure from Dugin’s earlier neo-Eurasianist framework.
