Here's my nit.

This is not to say that there are no longer Left leaning social scientists, it is to say that those who might have been considered more center- Left thirty or forty years ago have often moved to the Right.

The way this is phrased it sounds like people adopted a more conservative POV. My general sense of how it played out was that the people didn't change their views but that the progressives pushed the range out so far left that the ruler shifted leaving the delineating lines further left. Which makes it look like the people moved a notch right when the notches actually moved left. Also, the subject became more attractive to folks on the right as they were inspired to engage in an effort to stop the leftward flow. FWIW.
