 'The Intellectual Poverty of Racial Polylogism'

An article that criticises Racial Polylogicism, the fallacy that different human races have different ways of logically reasoning about the world or are driven by different sets of incentives.

People constantly use this type of thinking to label the universal values of individual freedom, financial sovereignty and free markets as 'western', 'foreign' or 'colonial'.
