Description

The Fall 2019 issue of The Occidental Quarterly, contains eight essays and 127 pages. Editor Kevin MacDonald, Ph.D., leads off with an article titled "Ralph Scott's Forty-year Battle for Science in Research on Forced Busing: Angela Saini, Barry Mehler, and the Academic Left." This article is based on Prof. Scott's personal correspondence as well as research on individuals like Angela Saini and Barry Mehler who are part of the contemporary thought police in the media and academic world. As the title indicates, Prof. Scott was subjected to forty-years of harassment by the activist left because of his politically incorrect views on forced busing. This is a telling portrait of the academic world over the last four decades. Andrew Fraser (who has also suffered greatly from academic thought police) contributes "Metanarrative Collapse: Has the Christian Cosmology Invented by St. Augustine Stood the Test of Time?" Fraser examines the crisis of contemporary theology arising from universalist interpretations of Christianity that all humans are made in God's image. Such interpretations are commonly cited by Christian thinkers eager to eradicate any sense of shared ancestry or common culture in the West. Ricardo Duchesne's "The European Idea of Progress Supersedes the Axial Age" argues that only the West developed beyond the level common in Axial Age thinking This style of thinking developed in several ancient cultures from 800 BC to 200 BC and involves, e.g., the ability to think about one's own thoughts found in Confucius and other ancient cultural figures. Europeans went far beyond this: "Europeans long exhibited a highly energetic, goal-oriented desire to break through the unknown, supersede the norm, and achieve mastery of nature." Andrew Joyce reviews Edward Dutton's Race Differences in Ethnocentrism, noting that, while Whites are relatively non-ethnocentric, Europe is increasingly allowing into its borders people who are much higher in ethnocentrism. Dr. Joyce concludes: "It is the humbling, unenviable, and largely thankless task of publications like The Occidental Quarterly to convince European peoples, wherever they are, that ethnocentrism is an option that should be taken now, before catastrophe makes that choice for them." Brenton Sanderson's essay, "The Alliance of Jews and the Left, 1830-1970" is based on a recent book on the topic by Philip Mendes. Sanderson points out that Mendes' writing is typical of much else in the area-essentially an apologia for Jewish involvement in what were at times very murderous and socially destructive movements. "The inherent weakness of Mendes' position necessitates specious argumentation and desperate resort to the innate irrationality and malevolence of the European mind and character." Finally, F. Roger Devlin reviews The Intelligence of Nations by Richard Lynn and David Becker. This book replicates and extends previous research in the area by Dr. Lynn and colleagues. Again, significant correlations are found between the average IQ of a country and its per capita income, production of academic papers, and even longevity; on the other hand, there are significantly negative correlations with crime rates and fertility. For Western countries, the question is whether to admit the many millions of individuals from low-IQ countries who want to move to the West for economic reasons. While Lynn and Becker argue that it is inevitable that the West will be overrun by low-IQ immigrants, Devlin remains doubtful. "Today's invasion is historically unique in being virtually unarmed and depending on the sympathy of the population being invaded. This ought to make it far easier to defeat, rather than 'inevitable' and 'unstoppable.' But for that, of course, Western man would have to be willing to take an active part in his creating his own history."
