HELP me find a Victor Davis Hanson Article

Posted on 06/01/2012 9:15:40 PM PDT by Crapgame

Within the past couple of days, there was an article by Victor Davis Hanson on "Why Culture Still Matters" or something to that effect. It was a series of poignant observations about Europe in particular and our own social decay. As usual Hanson pulled no punches. I read it here on FreeRepublic and now I cannot find it. No keyword searches are bringing it up for me and it is not posted on his private papers website. Does anyone else recall the article or know where I can find it?


TOPICS: Education; History; Religion; Society
KEYWORDS: culture; history; society; vdh; victordavishanso; victordavishanson
Any help locating this article would be greatly appreciated. I want to forward it to some of my thinking lib'rul friends. I'm beginning to wonder if it was too politically incorrect and he removed the work?

You got the answer on this quotation, but in the future, using a search engine will most always take you to what you want.
For example, I typed in “Why Culture Still Matters”, and I got the source instantly.
Often, just a few key words will take you where you want.

Culture Still Matters
You can learn a lot about a country’s destiny by just watching how people behave.

You can learn a lot about Europe’s current economic crises by ignoring the sophisticated barrage of news analysis and instead just watching, listening, and talking to people as you go down river.

Yogi Berra was on this a long time ago when he said, "You can observe a lot by watching."

Once again thanks to all who replied. I did indeed try keyword searches. None of them were returning the article. I went to his private papers website and couldn’t find it. I didn’t recall that he was a columnist for NRO. Thanks again to all who responded.
