There are several 'questions' that dominate the far right today, I know this doesn't contain that much actual political theory, but I find that this is what they spend their time talking about. Also this is the Far Right here so it will be rather extreme, don't yell at me for explaining it.

>1. The Sovereignty Question
The problem of how sovereignty is distributed, and why monarchy(or the like) is the best system. Anyone from Plato to Hobbes to Carlyle makes basically the same argument, about accountability, incentives, ability and character, efficiency, etc. A key idea here is that there is always a small elite, and it's better to have it out in the open as a Monarch and nobility than in any other form.

>2. The Economic Question
Usury is seen as the biggest economic problem in modern history. Read Goodson(history of central banking) and Rothbard(case against the fed). Otherwise economically speaking they mostly all like capitalism, with varying degrees of regulation by the central authority(it is a feature of far right thought that the monarch figure has some discretion here, and their views on taxation and welfare basically track the question 'is it eugenic?').

>3. The Sex Question
There is unfortunately no book about this that I know of. It's some hodgepodge of speculative evopsych and noticing that all successful civilizations seem to be very patriarchal. For evopsych read Sociobiology(wilson) and Selfish Gene(dawkins). The Dysgenics question is a another issue here since it relates to sexual reproduction. They basically want Biblical 'Man leads family' situation.

>4. The Race Question
Read Rushton's IQ papers, especially the meta-analyses. This involves 4b) the JQ, which is a lot more complicated. Ford(International Jew), Solzhenitsyn(200 years together), Shahak(J History, J Religion), MacDonald(CoC trilogy). Some Far Right people disagree with the JQ. For a very mild redpill you can read the Putnam study on diversity.

>5. The Religion Question
They are confused on this point. They seem to be unsure of whether culture is downstream from power or the reverse or both. I will say that they are very fond of talking about Schelling Points, means of coordinating cooperation without direct communication between all participating agents, so you could read the book where Schelling came up with the Focal Point, which is called The Strategy of Conflict(it's game theory). But basically they want a healthy religion that helps promote productive rather than corruptive cooperation between people(and there is always a state religion).

so basically...Fascist, antisemitic, conspiratorial, sexist, racist, machiavellian theocracy lel. There is a good reason that the political position of the far right sounds like a string of the worst insults from Progressives.

anyway if you want clarification on some point in here I will explain or rec a book, I ran out of space to post anything more detailed, so I tried to make it concise.
