Although Evola deals with marriage, family, and the relations of the
sexes in
"Ride the Tiger", he never specifically mentions abortion. In fact,
Evola's
position on the subject you are curious about is expressed more
clearly in the
chapter "The Problem of Births" in "Men Among the Ruins".

Although he never specifically mentions abortion as a means, Evola
speaks
out against the "bestial fecundity" of the masses, which is leading
to massive
overpopulation, in line with the emphasis the modern world places on
quantity over quality. Evola states that he thinks it would be
possible to limit
this crisis, as opposed to the idea that overpopulation is a "fire"
which is out of
human control.

You were right in stating that abortion was not as much as an issue
back then
in Europe as it is now in America. I may be incorrect, but until
relatively
recently (perhaps after Evola's death), I believe abortion was
illegal in
Europe, which means that when it did occur, it was a private and
messy thing.

I have often wondered what Evola's position on abortion would be
(perhaps
he mentions it in one of his untranslated books, but I have read all
of his work
translated into English, and can find nothing particularly referring
to abortion).
Certainly, Evola would not take the position advocated by some
American
Judeo-conservatives and the Catholic Church, namely, that every life
is
sacred, and therefore any abortions, euthenasia, or executions are
crimes
against God. On the other hand, I somehow doubt that Evola, despite
his
aversion to overpopulation and mass fecundity, would see as a good
thing
the hundreds of thousands of abortions every year, mostly of white
children,
while the non-white races progressively multiply.

If anyone has any further information, I would appreciate it.

Hello, Julius Evola never tackled the question of abortion in his work, nor did he tackle it in any of the essays which were gathered, under his supervision,...
