The Mankind Quarterly is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to physical anthropology and cultural anthropology and associated with the Pioneer Fund [citation needed]. It contains articles on human evolution, intelligence, ethnography, languages, mythology, archaeology, race, etc. It is published by Scott-Townsend Publishers and was founded in 1960, aiming to reunify biology with anthropology.
Many of those who constitute the publication's contributors, Board of Directors and publishers are connected to the academic hereditarian tradition [citation needed]. 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 [citation needed]. During the "Bell Curve wars" of the 1990s, it received attention when opponents of The Bell Curve publicized the fact that a small number of the works cited by Bell Curve authors Herrnstein and Murray had first been published in Mankind Quarterly [citation needed].
Its sister journal is Roger Pearson's Journal of Indo-European Studies, which also receives major funding from the Pioneer Fund [citation needed]. Pearson received over a million dollars in grants from the Pioneer Fund in the eighties and the nineties. [2] [3]
