Accepting revisionist history. (In part by gaslighting)
which, hits a nerve for me in terms of my quest to understand what happened to my field, coaching.
In this case, I saw a very literal and abject case of academic historical revisionism, meaning that a field that had been evolving for 80 years and had some solid academic grounding was suddenly hi-jacked, and the story was that it originated with the work of X, Y, Z, at a particular venue, and at a particular time.
And, the wild thing was that people who should have protested this, meaning those folks with massive skin in the research side, and practice development side, said not a word.
And, if I say a 'word' now, present what I believe to be a 'true' history (and well-documented), the gaslighting begins.
Anyway, an interesting list, an interesting point.
