MANKIND QUARTERLY

The '''Mankind Quarterly''' is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to physical anthropology and cultural anthropology and is currently published by The Council for Social and Economic Studies in Washington, D.C. It contains articles on human evolution, intelligence, ethnography, languages, mythology, archaeology, race, etc. It aims to reunify biology with anthropology. The journal was founded in 1960, and originally published in Edinburgh, Scotland, by the International Association for the Advancement of Ethnology and Eugenics.
Many of those who constitute the publication's contributors, Board of Directors and publishers are connected to the academic hereditarian tradition. This journal has been criticized by some as being political and racist.^[1]
According to defenders, ''Mankind Quarterly'' has never been afraid to publish articles in taboo areas , including behavioral group differences and the importance of mental ability for individual outcomes and group differences . During the "Bell Curve wars" of the 1990s, it received attention when opponents of ''The Bell Curve'' publicized the fact that some of the works cited by ''Bell Curve'' authors Herrnstein and Murray had first been published in ''Mankind Quarterly''. ^[2] In the New York Review of Books Charles Lane referred to The Bell Curve's "tainted sources," noting that seventeen researchers cited in the book's bibliography had contributed articles to, and ten of these seventeen had also been editors of, the Mankind Quarterly, "a notorious journal of 'racial history' founded, and funded, by men who believe in the genetic superiority of the white race."^[3]
Its sister journal is Roger Pearson's Journal of Indo-European Studies, which also receives major funding from the Pioneer Fund . Pearson received over a million dollars in grants from the Pioneer Fund in the eighties and the nineties. ^{[4] [5]}
This journal should not be confused with the longstanding Australian anthropological journal "Mankind", now known as "The Australian Journal of Anthropology" or "TAJA".
