whither mankind

A 1928 book titled Whither Mankind: A Panorama of Modern Civilization outlines predictions of the future of the then intelligentsia of scientists and engineers, most of whom were open eugenicists or sympathetic to the idea. Not surprisingly, the book is held at the Eugenics Survey Library of Vermont, assembled by prominent eugenicist Henry Perkins. Bertrand Russell, scientists and philosopher famous for his writings on the ideal scientific society of elites, provided a little known essay for Whither Mankind. In it he re-iterates his other published works on the inevitable takeover of a scientific elite. As quoted, Russell states:

“…the State increasingly interferes between parents and children for example, by insisting on education and forbidding physical cruelty. It would seem likely that this tendency will continue; more particularly, the State may be expected to assume the role of the father by taking over economic responsibility for the child, on the ground that many fathers cannot be trusted in this matter. If so, there will inevitably be a breakdown of the family, which must modify social psychology profoundly, producing, in place of individuals, well-drilled armies of intelligent but submissive Janissaries, without individual differences, and without loyalties other than their loyalty to the State.”

Interesting.  I bet not a coincidence either.  The mob has the attention span of a fly.  We’d much rather pay attention to porn and entertainment anyways.

  • I think this book may have been a strong influence on the later book “1984″. Regardless, science fiction almost always become science fact. It’s all about control of the family where judges (MIB) have too much power with the support of social workers.
