Racism

This is a tough one - difficult not to offend anyone - but some things need to be told. With that said, I would like to outline my views on the subject, unfiltered by self-censorship.

The prevalent view of academia is that all races are equal, in the sense that they have equal “value”. This may be correct, depending on how you define “value”. And if you define value as having a particular outcome, then there are huge differences.

When you consider economic development (per-capita income) for example, there are striking differences. Western countries (Most of Asia, Europe, the Slavic countries and North America) are looked at as “developed”. African countries, South and Central America, and much of the Middle East, are lagging behind in that respect; we refer to them as “developing countries”. So we can look at “the standard of living” as our criteria to determine which races, or cultures, lead to the best outcome. So the question is: why?
