If you'll check the sci.lang archives, you'll find that there was a
bit of a kerfuffle because that Institute was at some point to some
extent funded by someone who also funded white supremacist
organizations. Someone thought that that meant that anyone who ever
published in JIES was a white supremacist.

It's that that simple. John V. Day, whose monograph on the physical
attributes of the Indo-Europeans (as he imagined) the Inst. for the
Study of Man published, also published in a white nationalist magazine
an article claiming that "race-mixing" is what caused Greek and Roman
civilization to fall.

The other authors published in that series are respectable. Lehmann's
monograph on Pre-Indo-European is fascinating reading.
