Interview with Prof. Angelo Codevilla

Who is Angelo Codevilla, you ask?

Codevilla is professor emeritus of international relations at Boston University. A year ago he published a remarkable essay in The American Spectator titled America's Ruling Class and the Perils of Revolution.  It's the best essay (and later a book) on politics that I've ever read.

Codevilla has a remarkably clear understanding of elites in American culture, and he provides insight into science elites as well.

Here's the interview. Enjoy.

  1. I have read the essay. If I was asked to resume it in one statement, I would quote this:

    By identifying science and reason with themselves, our rulers delegitimize opposition.

    But as one great President once said: You cannot fool all the people all the time!
