The End of History (As an Academic Discipline) DAVID STROM

The End of History (As an Academic Discipline) DAVID STROM
"...History Departments are no longer interested in teaching history per se but the history of ethnic groups...
The change in focus is quite striking. 
In only a decade, job postings focused on historical periods and American history have plummeted in number, but postings focused on ethnicity studies have exploded.

Jobs focused on research and teaching of American history were nearly 30% of all jobs in 2011 and 2012, Jobs focused on ethnic groups made up about 16% of the jobs.

Moving forward a decade, American history professors made up 6.4% of the hires, and ethnic studies made up more than half of the jobs...
  • Now imagine what is taught in those classes, and the chances that any of those classes aren’t about spewing Marxist propaganda are near zero...
