# Arktos Media
Arktos Media is a publishing house specializing in European [[New Right]] philosophy, founded in 2010 by Daniel Friberg in Mumbai, India, and later relocated to Sweden. The company has become the primary English-language publisher for the intellectual tradition of the continental European far right, issuing translations of thinkers like [[Julius Evola]] and [[Alain de Benoist]] whose work had previously been largely inaccessible to Anglophone audiences. By making this body of theory available in affordable editions, Arktos has served as critical intellectual infrastructure for the international radical right.
The publishing house occupies a strategic node in the global [[Alt-Right]] ecosystem. Friberg was a co-founder of the Swedish Motpol metapolitical think tank and later became involved with Richard Spencer's [[Radix Journal]] and the National Policy Institute in the United States. Through these overlapping networks, Arktos helped facilitate cross-pollination between European [[Identitarian Movement]] thought and American white nationalist circles, including those orbiting [[Counter-Currents]] Publishing. The firm's catalog — spanning Traditionalism, identitarianism, fourth political theory, and anti-liberal philosophy — provides the ideological vocabulary that distinguishes the intellectual far right from cruder populist movements.
Arktos matters to right-wing research because it illustrates how publishing and translation function as movement infrastructure. The company's catalog choices shape which ideas circulate, which thinkers gain authority, and how European radical-right philosophy gets adapted for American and global audiences.
