Trying to Redefine Conservatism

“We’ve pursued and achieved the #modern dream of defining ourselves—but at what cost? Sohrab Ahmari, New York Post op-ed editor, makes a compelling case for seeking the inherited traditions and ideals that give our lives meaning.” https://t.co/DnDBAzDdKm

Will it be a post-civic nationalism conservatism that will fail to respect the original Anglo-Celtic peoples and culture?

Chinese Male Feminists

simping and peddling dubious history...

BBC's coverage on this recent rise of "female virtual" lessons in China. "Career women don't end well." "Women must always obey the orders of their fathers, husbands and sons."—These courses share the same moral cornerstone with the new Mulan: 孝 7/https://t.co/sIlO0KyJVZ

我不知道这是道具组在电脑上找的字体还是专门写的，总之一股小学生正楷习作风格。可能是为了开模方便，把笔画都刚好连在圆周上，横和撇完全没有舒展地等长约束在圆内，以及起撇的大顿笔，难看出戏到爆。魏碑里好看的「孝」字不要太多。剑上那几个字没了圆框稍微好一点点，但也是很无语的正楷。 pic.twitter.com/G41q34PBf8

Funny how many of these Chinese male feminists are not living in China. The CCP would have no problem subverting xiao to the interests of the state.

Is Burke Worth Keeping?

Many thanks to ⁦@LawLiberty⁩ for publishing my review of ⁦@GregCollins111⁩ new and, I think, definitive book on the economic thought of Edmund Burke. https://t.co/sXIEb8V4mZ

— Samuel Gregg (@DrSamuelGregg) July 28, 2020

If you are the type of conservative who is suspicious of markets and economic liberty more generally, holds business in low regard, prefers protectionist, guild, or corporatist economic arrangements, and nurse a hostility to modernity, Burke is not your man. Advocacy of the expansion of commercial liberty is a consistent thread of Burke’s thought. He believed that commercial society conferred great material, political, and moral advantages upon nations which embraced these freedoms and the limits to state power which they implied.

By the same token, if you are the type of classical liberal who cannot see beyond the lens of economic categories, is nervous about associating freedom with any conception of truth beyond the empirical, embraces hedonist ethics, or despises orthodox religion, then Burke is really not your man either. For to be an “oeconomist,” in the way that Burke’s Reflections used this word, is to detach yourself from these important realities. From Burke’s standpoint, this was to make the same mistake as the men in Paris busy pursuing dreams that would end in the guillotine and war.

Burke reacted against mercantilism but took some sort of free trade as a given, along with the British Empire and the "modern state." Does he resolve politike to first principles? I don't think so. MacIntyre's assessment of Burke in After Virtue is more correct than not.

Plato on the Necessity of Wisdom

Habit is not enough? It is not sufficient for political life to be maintained if no one has understanding and wisdom, but this is an old debate between Plato and Aristotle, and I'd still go with Aristotle's response on the question of knowing the good.

Scott Beauchamp Reviews Anthony Esolen's Latest Book

AmConMag: Nostalgia: Why the Left and Right Both Get It Wrong By SCOTT BEAUCHAMP

Anthony Esolen's latest explores our connection to the past and the reality that transcends.

Tradition Is Not Enough.

There must be virtue, and virtue as it is found in virtuous, heroic men.

Classical education is important but do these new schools know for what sort of future they are preparing their students? We don't need more "nice" Christians.

Barbarians At The Banquet By ROD DREHER
Classical Christian schools as civilization’s defense against elites who despise Tradition

Will There Be a Return to the Medieval University?

There is no financial infrastructure for it, and today's good Catholic colleges are a pale comparison with the Catholic medieval university. They may feel fortified within a conservative enclave, but just wait until they hire their first SJW (who is more likely than not to be a woman, and of course our conservative Catholic intellectuals have to show how egalitarian they are but hiring women). The sort of accountability that is required for honest debate and discussion can only be found within a group of men, and that is not always what happens. A woman who must submit and show deference or respect to men because of their unequal social standing isn't really a peer for such a discussion. An university doesn't not operate separate from the political community; rather it is an instantiation of the political community, and a teacher or scholar cannot divide his identity into two separate spheres of life. As a teacher or scholar he is also at the same time a member of the political community; he is accountable not only to his colleagues at the school but to his fellow citizens in the polis.
