Pearson Question

Ok, I couldn't find much info on this Pearson guy or his institute
by running a search, but I did read that article that was linked
to. I don't know exactly what the guy means in his conclusion, but
it sounds like some kind of veiled "racial purity" reference. I
think I'm begining to understand the "Nazi" label.


...In a journal about the West and its future, it is fitting to end
this article by briefly recounting the fate of the Roman upper
class. Among Indo-European peoples, the Romans offer an especially
useful example because they left masses of records, enabling later
historians to determine what became of them. The evidence found in
ancient texts implies that this class descended largely from Indo-
Europeans who had a decidedly northern European physical type,
although that isn't something one reads in modern books about Roman
history. In Rome, though, the upper class was always a tiny
minority. Instead of protecting its interests, it allowed itself to
wither away. Consider a bleak statistic. We know of about fifty
patrician clans in the fifth century B.C., but by the time of
Caesar, in the later first century B.C., only fourteen of these had
survived.43 The decay continued in imperial times. We know of the
families of nearly four hundred Roman senators in A.D. sixty five,
but, just one generation later, all trace of half of these families
had vanished.44

If we in the West want to avoid a similar fate, we must learn from
Indo-European history...
