- Roger_Pearson_(anthropologist) abstract "Roger Pearson (born 1927) is a British anthropologist, soldier, businessman, eugenics advocate, political organizer for the extreme right, and publisher of political and academic journals. He has been on the faculty of the Queens College, Charlotte and University of Southern Mississippi, and Montana Tech, and is now retired. It has been noted that Pearson has been surprisingly successful in combining a career in academics with political activities on the far-right. He served in the British Army after World War 2, and was a businessman in South Asia. In the late 1950s he founded the Northern League, an organization promoting pan-germanism, anti-Semitism and neo-Nazi ideologies. In the 1960s he established himself in the United States for a while working together with Willis Carto publishing white supremacist and anti-Semitic literature.Pearson's anthropological work is based in an evolutionary and racialist approach, of the kind that was common in anthropology in the early 20th century, based on the idea that the progress of humankind depends on making sure that "favorable" genes are segregated out from amongst "unfavorable" genetic formulae". Since his earliest work he has consistently advocated that the human species consists of biologically distinct races which he defines as "rival breeding populations", some of which are intrinsically better fit than others, and which ought to compete against each other in a struggle for survival, but which all to frequently intermingle to the detriment of the superior races. He argues that the future of the human species depends on political and scientific steps to replace the "genetic formulae" and populations that he consider to be inferior with better ones, through "humane and benevolent eugenics policies"Pearson also published two popular textbooks in anthropology, but his anthropological views on the race question have been widely rejected as unsupported by contemporary anthropology. Consequently Pearson faced difficulties in publishing his work. For this reason he founded several journals dedicated to publicizing research that was otherwise excluded from publication in mainstream journals, which Pearson considers to be dominated by egalitarian political correctness. Among the journals founded by Pearson are Mankind Quarterly (with Robert Gayre and others), Journal of Social, Political, and Economic Studies (with Council for American Affairs), both of which have been widely criticized for publishing scientifically questionable studies motivated by right wing political interests and a racialist ideology.[citation needed] He also founded the Journal of Indo-European Studies, the most influential journal of Indo-European linguistics. Most of Pearson's publishing ventures have been managed through the Institute for the Study of Man, founded by Pearson, but which now only publishes the JIES. The institute has received significant amounts of funding from the Pioneer Fund, with which Pearson is also closely associated. His strict stance against racial and political egalitarianism also manifested in a consistent opposition to Marxism and socialism. In the 1980s he was a political organizer for the American far-right, he established the Council for American Affairs, the American representative in the World Anti-Communist League. Pearson was World Chairman of the WACL, and in that capacity collaborated closely with the US government during the cold war, and he collaborated with international many anti-communist groups in the organization, including followers of Reverend Moon and former German Nazis.[citation needed]".
