Andrew Fraser’s “The WASP Question”

The publisher Arktos Media has circularised details of Prof Andrew Fraser’s new book, The Wasp Question.  Andrew, whose travails in 2005 at Macquairrie University were followed closely at MR, and who was twice interviewed for MR Radio, is an expert in legal history and constitutional law.  His book, however, also treats of the ethnogenesis of the Anglo Saxon people and of their religious expression.

Frank Salter has written the customary blurb, describing The Wasp Question as:

... a groundbreaking contribution to the project of synthesizing Anglo-American constitutional and legal history with the evolutionary biology of ethnicity and a Christian ethno-theology. Fraser adds a new aspect to the modern ethno-pathology that now infects the Anglo-Saxon bioculture: “Civic patriotism cannot be sustained in multi-racial societies.” His radical critique of American constitutionalism exposes a major threat to the ethnic interests of America’s founding race—the White Anglo-Saxon Protestants who have since degenerated into an “invisible race” of deracinated WASPs.

Anglo-Saxon constitutionalism and its modern deconstruction are intertwined with excursions into history and genetics. Fraser explores the religious dimension of ethnic group strategies in a plausible historical and evolutionary frame. Evolutionary biology lends this book a magisterial view looking back to ethnogenesis in the England of Alfred the Great, and looking forward to a world made human by postmodern tribal solidarity, including that of the scattered Anglo-Saxon nation. The result is a fresh analysis of the ethno-religious foundations of the English people.

The WASP Question is valuable for focusing attention on the plight of Anglo-Saxon societies assailed by runaway materialism and imposed diversity. The book articulates a role for national religions in defending populations of ethnic kin. For Anglo-Saxons, that role is fulfilled by the orthodox Christian doctrine of nations. Fraser’s appeal to a patriot king who can restore Anglo-Saxons’ biocultural identity and ethno-religious autonomy is a provocative alternative.

Agree or disagree with Andrew Fraser’s prescriptions, his combination of originality and scholarship deserves to find a place in literature dealing with ethnicity, nationalism, constitutional history, biosocial science, and advocacy for Anglo-Saxon ethnic identity and biocultural continuity. Be prepared to read, reread and ponder.

I demand a in-depth review, of an important work in a hopefully growing genre. Contact Fraser and get a copy.

It would be most instructive if both Grimoire and Desmond would submit side by side reviews (perhaps they can pick a number of GW’s choosing to see who gets the free review copy).

But I look forward to getting this new work myself (despite not being a WASP at all, only a humble Nordic).

I have seen the original manuscript and it was a genuine and considerable contribution.  I could request a review copy if someone wishes to step forward up to the plate.

I can do a review, but not a critique. If no one else steps up I’d be happy to.

An ugly and unfortunate title.

Grim,

I am sure Arktos would appreciate a review a lot more than a critique!  I’ll get in touch with them and let you know by mail what they say.

Here’s the problem, Mr. Salter:

    While we’re reading, rereading, and pondering (as we have been doing for 15 years), this is going on out in the bright light of day.

    The “civilized” Swedes applaud politely when they should draw out their daggers and shriek as they plunge.
