The Journal of Historical Review - cover

Volume Four · Number One · Spring 1983

Between 1980 and 2002, The Journal of Historical Review was published by the Institute for Historical Review.

CODOH mirrors the old papers that were published in that journal.

A Note From The Editor

Human history is more than the history of politics, but it can never be less. Politics pervades, and any sphere of human activity or thought (including the record of it), at any time, is invariably colored – sometimes controlled – by the impulses of politics in the realm of thought or action, or both. Men…

The Holocaust as Sacred Cow

There's been a lot of … people walkin' around my ranch lately, talkin' about some hollow-cast. What's a hollow-cast? Is it like a spin-cast or a dry-cast? They don't look like fishin' types, and there ain't no water here anyhow.”– Letter to National Lampoon “Men become civilized, not in proportion to their willingness to believe,…
