The Nature of Difference Sciences of Race in the United States from Jefferson to Genomics The book "The Nature of Difference Sciences of Race in the United States from Jefferson to Genomics" explores the historical development of racial differences in the United States, from the early days of scientific inquiry to the present day. It examines how scientists have studied race over time and how their findings have influenced society's understanding of race and its implications for human diversity. The book begins with Thomas Jefferson's views on race and the Enlightenment era's influence on his ideas about race. It then delves into the 19th-century debates over slavery and the Civil War, the eugenics movement of the early 20th century, and the modern genomic era. The book also looks at how different scientific fields such as anthropology, sociology, and biology have contributed to our understanding of race and how these understandings have evolved over time. It highlights key figures in each field who have shaped our understanding of race and how their work has impacted society. Additionally, it discusses how social movements such as the civil rights movement and feminist movement have influenced our understanding of race and how science has been used to justify discrimination and inequality. The book concludes by looking at the current state of race research and how it is being used today to address issues such as health disparities and educational inequality.
Природа различий наук о расе в Соединенных Штатах от Джефферсона до геномики Книга «Природа различий наук о расе в Соединенных Штатах от Джефферсона до геномики» исследует историческое развитие расовых различий в Соединенных Штатах, с первых дней научного исследования до наших дней. В нем рассматривается, как ученые изучали расу с течением времени и как их результаты повлияли на понимание обществом расы и ее последствий для человеческого разнообразия. Книга начинается с взглядов Томаса Джефферсона на расу и влияние эпохи Просвещения на его представления о расе. Затем он углубляется в дебаты XIX века о рабстве и гражданской войне, движении евгеники начала XX века и современной геномной эре. В книге также рассматривается, как различные научные области, такие как антропология, социология и биология, внесли свой вклад в наше понимание расы и как эти понимания развивались с течением времени. В нем освещаются ключевые фигуры в каждой области, которые сформировали наше понимание расы и того, как их работа повлияла на общество. Кроме того, в нем обсуждается, как социальные движения, такие как движение за гражданские права и феминистское движение, повлияли на наше понимание расы и как наука использовалась для оправдания дискриминации и неравенства. В заключение книги рассматривается текущее состояние исследований расы и то, как они используются сегодня для решения таких проблем, как различия в состоянии здоровья и неравенство в образовании.
La natura delle differenze tra le scienze della razza negli Stati Uniti, da Jefferson alla genomica «La natura delle differenze tra le scienze della razza negli Stati Uniti da Jefferson alla genomica» esplora l'evoluzione storica delle differenze razziali negli Stati Uniti, dai primi giorni della ricerca scientifica a oggi. Esso considera come gli scienziati abbiano studiato la razza nel tempo e come i loro risultati abbiano influenzato la comprensione della razza e le sue conseguenze sulla diversità umana. Il libro inizia con la visione di Thomas Jefferson sulla razza e l'influenza dell'Illuminismo sulla sua visione della razza. Poi si approfondisce nel dibattito del XIX secolo sulla schiavitù e la guerra civile, il movimento eugenetico dell'inizio del XX secolo e l'era genomica moderna. Il libro considera anche come diverse aree scientifiche, come l'antropologia, la sociologia e la biologia, abbiano contribuito alla nostra comprensione della razza e come queste comprensione si siano evolute nel tempo. Esso mette in luce le figure chiave di ogni campo che hanno formato la nostra comprensione della razza e di come il loro lavoro ha influenzato la società. Inoltre, si discute di come i movimenti sociali, come il movimento per i diritti civili e il movimento femminista, abbiano influenzato la nostra comprensione della razza e come la scienza sia stata usata per giustificare discriminazioni e disuguaglianze. In conclusione, il libro affronta lo stato attuale della ricerca sulla razza e il modo in cui vengono usati oggi per affrontare problemi quali le differenze di salute e le disuguaglianze educative.
