The Dark Enlightenment, sometimes abbreviated NRx, is an anti-democratic, anti-egalitarian, reactionary philosophy founded by English philosopher Nick Land and Curtis Yarvin, an American software engineer and blogger. The ideology generally rejects whig historiography[1] — the concept that history shows an inevitable progression towards greater liberty and enlightenment, culminating in liberal democracy and constitutional monarchy — in favor of a return to traditional societal constructs and forms of government, including monarchism and other archaic forms of leadership such as a cameralism.
