    On the Importance of IQ, Part 2

    2,193 words

    Part 1 here

    Richard Haier begins his fascinating 2017 work The Neuroscience of Intelligence with a question: Why are some people smarter than others? From this he brings the reader up to speed on what neuroscientists have discovered about the genetic and physiological underpinnings of intelligence. This seems like a vast topic, but it really isn’t given how many neuroscientists shy away from the “controversial” topic of intelligence. (more…)

    On the Importance of IQ, Part 1

    While doing a deep dive into Richard Haier’s illuminating textbook, The Neuroscience of Intelligence, I was reminded of something Academic Agent said during a particularly interesting episode of Millenniyule 2021: (more…)

    Racial versus Genetic Essentialism

    New American citizens on their way to becoming like us.

    3,161 words

    In a series of articles that will follow I will examine the defining issue of our cause, which is essentialism, and in particular, essentialist identities. In this first instalment, I will consider how Modernity substitutes genuine essences with counterfeit ones and examine how this relates to Plato’s theory of forms. (more…)

    The Coming Convergence of “Race Realism” & Precision Medicine:
    Opportunities & Challenges for White Advocates

    3,592 words

    We need new tactics to both fend off attacks against our identity, such as by defusing accusations of “racism,” and also to be able to define ourselves through a positive, modern self-image. In my last article I put forward a strategy to accomplish the first, and in this one I am going to outline a tactic for the second. (more…)

    Is “Short Time Preference” Really Such a Problem?

    Frederic Remington, The Lookout, 1887.

    6,044 words

    One of the more common tropes found in Dissident Right discourse concerns the relationship between the Left and “reality.” This discourse articulates a belief held by Right-wingers that the Left lives in denial of reality, and that this leads to deleterious outcomes for peoples of European descent. However, in another sense, Right-wing discourses concerning the Left-wing relationship with reality focuses on how particular personalities common on the Left cause them to relate to present and future realities differently than those on the Right.

    Kevin MacDonald’s Individualism & the Western Liberal Tradition:
    The Indigenous Europeans

    2,932 words

    Kevin MacDonald’s Individualism and the Western Liberal Tradition: Evolutionary Origins, History, and Prospects For the Future (2019) is the first book that employs an evolutionary psychological approach to explain the rise of the West — actually, it is the first book that aims to comprehend the dynamics of the entire history of the West from prehistoric to current times to explain as well the decline of the West, the ways in which the “egalitarian individualism” originated by northwest Europeans in hunting and gathering times planted the seeds of the West’s current decision to destroy its genetic heritage through the importation of masses of immigrants.

    Contrary to conventional wisdom, race isn’t a concept, construct, or any other type of trite postmodern abstraction, but rather a scientifically-proven, biological fact. (more…)

    6. The Presence of the Past: A View from the Margins of Science

    Some of the above remarks might suggest that we should interpret the Germanic hamingja–fylgja teaching as a mythic, symbolic, or even superstitious way of understanding the phenomenon of inheritance – something our ancestors relied upon because they did not have the modern science of genetics.

    The Metaphysics of Death

    4,440 words

    “Only the dead can know what it means to be dead.”—Ananda Coomaraswamy[1]

    Philip Larkin’s poem “Aubade” articulates his fear of death in chilling terms. It describes a man who hates his job and gets drunk every night. Then, before dawn, he wakes, and with the gathering light, he fixates on the certainty of his own death and what it will mean for him. Larkin is clear that it means complete cessation of the self, that there is no possibility of an afterlife, and that this absence of the self is the most terrifying thing in the world. (more…)

    Nikolai Vavilov

    Nikolai Vavilov, “Counter-revolutionary”

    Translated by G. A. Malvicini

    One of the episodes that best characterizes the spirit of Bolshevism is the so-called “Vavilov case.” Professor Nikolai Vavilov was a Russian biologist who was deported to Siberia along with other colleagues of his, not for strictly political reasons, but simply for being an exponent of the theory of genetics. Genetics is a branch of biology that admits the existence of pre-formation in human beings, i.e., of predispositions and traits that are internal, congenital (based on “genes”), not derived from external factors.  (more…)

    Cet article est basé sur un texte plus ancien publié dans le numéro d’octobre 2005 de la revue Identity. Il a été ensuite développé avec les apports de Roger Pearson, professeur d’anthropologie, particulièrement dans la section concernant les origines de l’homme européen.
