Thomas Sowell est un auteur américain, économiste, commentateur politique, théoricien social et chercheur principal à la Hoover Institution.
Sowell est né à Gastonia, en Caroline du Nord, dans une famille pauvre. Après que sa famille ait migré vers le Nord, il a grandi à Harlem, New York. Assailli par des difficultés financières et des conditions de vie détériorées, il a abandonné le lycée Stuyvesant et a servi dans le Corps des Marines pendant la guerre de Corée. À son retour aux États-Unis, Sowell a suivi des cours du soir à l'Université Howard avant de fréquenter l'Université Harvard, où il a obtenu son diplôme magna cum laude en 1958. Il a obtenu sa maîtrise en économie de l'Université Columbia l'année suivante et a obtenu un doctorat en économie de l'Université de Chicago. en 1968. Au cours de sa carrière universitaire, il a siégé dans les facultés de plusieurs universités, dont l'Université Cornell, l'Amherst College, l'Université de Californie à Los Angeles et, actuellement, l'Université de Stanford. Il a également travaillé dans des groupes de réflexion tels que l'Urban Institute. Depuis 1977, il travaille à la Hoover Institution de l'Université de Stanford, où il est chercheur principal Rose et Milton Friedman en politique publique.
Sowell est généralement décrit comme un conservateur, en particulier sur les questions sociales ; un libertaire, en particulier sur l'économie, ou libertaire-conservateur. Sowell était une figure importante du nouveau mouvement conservateur pendant l'ère Reagan, influençant son collègue économiste Walter E. Williams et le juge de la Cour suprême des États-Unis, Clarence Thomas. Sowell s'est vu offrir un poste présidentiel dans l'administration Nixon et en tant que commissaire fédéral au commerce par l'administration Ford en 1976, mais a décliné les deux offres. De même, il s'est vu proposer de diriger le département américain de l'éducation en tant que secrétaire à l'éducation sous Ronald Reagan, mais a refusé d'accepter le poste. Il a reçu la National Humanities Medal du président George W. Bush en 2002. Sowell est l'auteur de plus de 45 livres et a été chroniqueur syndiqué dans plus de 150 journaux.

Kitabın Tanımı

Intellectuals and Race kitap pdf oku ve indir Thomas Sowell

Intellectuals and Race is a radical book in the original sense of one that goes to the root of the problem. The role of intellectuals in racial strife is explored in an international context that puts the American experience in a wholly new light.
The views of individual intellectuals have spanned the spectrum, but the views of intellectuals as a whole have tended to cluster. Indeed, these views have clustered at one end of the spectrum in the early twentieth century and then clustered at the opposite end of the spectrum in the late twentieth century. Moreover, these radically different views of race in these two eras were held by intellectuals whose views on other issues were very similar in both eras.
Intellectuals and Race is not, however, a book about history, even though it has much historical evidence, as well as demographic, geographic, economic and statistical evidence-- all of it directed toward testing the underlying assumptions about race that have prevailed at times among intellectuals in general, and especially intellectuals at the highest levels. Nor is this simply a theoretical exercise. The impact of intellectuals' ideas and crusades on the larger society, both past and present, is the ultimate concern. These ideas and crusades have ranged widely from racial theories of intelligence to eugenics to "social justice" and multiculturalism.
In addition to in-depth examinations of these and other issues, Intellectuals and Race explores the incentives, the visions and the rationales that drive intellectuals at the highest levels to conclusions that have often turned out to be counterproductive and even disastrous, not only for particular racial or ethnic groups, but for societies as a whole.
