The book of the famous philosopher, publicist, doctor of political sciences and leader of the International "Eurasian Movement" A.G. Dugin talks about various "conspiracy theories," their sociological functions, connections with archetypes of traditions and religions, their place in the general context of modern political mythology. Conspiracy theory is described as a particular extravagant theory of knowledge that became widespread in the postmodern era; numerous and diverse illustrations of "conspiracies" are given, equally exciting the minds of our contemporaries, regardless of whether they are real or entirely invented.
