The Fourth Political Theory (Template:Lang-ru, Chetvertaya Politicheskaya Teoriya) is a book by the Russian political scientist and theorist Aleksandr Dugin, published in 2009. In the book, Dugin states that he is laying the foundations for an entirely new political ideology, the fourth political theory, which integrates and supersedes liberal democracy, Marxism, and fascism.[1] In this theory, the main subject of politics is not individual, not class, and not nation, but Dasein.

The book has been cited as an inspiration for Russian policy in events such as the War in Donbass,[2] and for the contemporary European far-right in general.[3]
