This essay gives Benoist the opportunity to return to this theme by developing a definition of what he calls 'the ideology of Sameness'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf we reject egalitarianism, should we accept all kinds of inequality? No, because equality is never an absolute. Men can be equal in certain respects - for example, their political membership in a community - and unequal in others. As communal beings, men must necessarily accept such forms of equality. What needs to be fought against, however, is the 'ideology of Sameness', which lies at the heart of modernity. This sinister dynamic aims at the complete annihilation of all differences, the neutralisation of the world, and the destruction of communities - all in the name of a purely mathematical vision of equality. This is a pathological distortion of the concept of political equality. Equality is not synonymous with Sameness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alain De Benoist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1915755085\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781915755087\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arktos Media Ltd.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/12\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 60\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.14d","brand":"Alain De Benoist","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44132573774079,"sku":"9781915755087","price":10.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4c1765f2-1443-44d2-9737-df2b1edba954.jpg?v=1687481011","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-ideology-of-sameness-alain-de-benoist-9781915755087","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
