Küçük Kutup Ayısı - Ren Geyiklerini Kurtarıyor TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Although a bit of an anachronism, GAMAY is interesting in that it shows the trend toward secularism (anti-religion) and collectivism (anti-capitalism) that has been de rigeur on American college campi since shortly after WWII. I was surprised that it fell that way so soon after a battle with godless totalitarianism, but American higher education has always been, apparently, eager to flirt with disaster. A look at "higher" education in America today would shock even Buckley, who, at 25, just two months out of Yale himself when he wrote this (and what a vocabulary, even then!), presciently predicted this lamentable outcome. The fact that Yale began as a college to educate Congregationalislt ministers, and its own administration so thorougly and completely abdicated any religious responsibility toward its student body (in direct contravention to its own bylaws) shows how feckless and perhaps even hostile these same men have been toward the origins of their own employer. No wonder the student radicalism of the 1960s gained such a foothold at Yale; the administration themselves had lost all sense of value or tradition. An interesting aside: Buckley's youthful but still well-reasoned arguments were never countered by his critics; they merely resulted in the endless, screeching, and pathetic ad hominem attacks he so blithely suffered throughout his long, productive life, jabbing his fingers into the eyes of the liberal establishment (an establishment that began at Yale itself), all the while quoting Latin and smiling. He is sorely missed as a keen representative of what has become, thanks to his alma mater, the "alternative" view, conservatism.
