| description | The approaches that anthropology and other “soft” sciences have adopted for the study “racialised bodies” (socially constructed of course) should also take account of modern biological data. The text first provides a broad overview of the quite recent history of Western racialism. Then, with the help of a few examples, it briefly highlights the ethnological need to probe the reciprocity of body perceptions—how “others” perceive us. This is followed by the article’s two main sections, which consider two questions: are races pure cultural and historical “inventions” (e.g. the West Indies), or are they “natural” units? (Genes speak not of real races, but of ancestry groups.) Is there a duality of aporetic approaches, a couple of strongly complementary views? |
