Paperback. Condizione: New. The idea of race may be outdated, as many commentators and scholars, working in a broad range of different fields in the sciences and humanities, have argued over many years. Nevertheless, it remains one of the most persistent forms of human classification. Theories of race primitivism (the idea that there is a 'natural' racial hierarchy and ranking order of 'inferior' and 'superior' races), race biologism (the belief that people can be classified by genetic features which are shared by members of racial groups), and race essentialism (the notion that races can be defined by scientifically identifiable and verifiable cultural and physical characteristics) are deeply embedded in modern history, culture and politics. Historicizing Race offers a new understanding of this reality by exploring the interconnectedness of scientific, cultural and political strands of racial thought in Europe and elsewhere. It re-conceptualises the idea of race by unearthing various historical traditions that continue to inform not only current debates about individual and collective identities, but also national and international politics. In a concise format, accessible to students and scholars alike, the authors draw out some of the reasons why race-centred thinking has, in recent years, re-emerged in such shocking and explicit form in current populist, xenophobic, and anti-immigration movements.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. The History of East-Central European Eugenics, 1900-1945 redefines the European history of eugenics by exploring the ideological transmission of eugenics internationally and its application locally in East-Central Europe. It includes 100 primary sources translated from the East-Central European languages into English for the first time and key contributions from leading scholars in the field from around Europe. This volume examines the main eugenic organisations, as well as individuals and policies that shaped eugenics in Austria, Poland, the former Czechoslovakia, the former Yugoslavia, Hungary and Romania. It also explores the ways in which ethnic minorities interacted with national and international eugenics discourses to advance their own aims and ambitions, whilst providing a comparative analysis of the emergence and development of eugenics in East-Central Europe more generally. Complete with a glossary of terms, a list of all eugenic societies and journals from these countries, as well as a comprehensive bibliography, The History of East-Central European Eugenics, 1900-1945 is a pivotal reference work for students, researchers and academics interested in East-Central Europe and the history of science and national identity in the 20th century.…

Condizione: Sehr Gut. Zustandsbeschreibung: leichte Lagerspuren, untere Kanten bestoßen, Mängelexemplarstempel auf Fußschnitt/unused, minor shelfwear, somewhat bumped, remainder mark stamp on edge. From Genesis to Eugenics and Beyond. Edited by Marius Turda. Understanding the human - a form of moral and religious introspection and historical responsibility and a quest for scientific knowledge and adaptability to technological progress: "Crafting humans" - and its corollary human enhancement - is a contested topic, both in medical sciences and the humanities. With continuing advances in science and technology, scientists and the general public alike are aware that the basic foundations of the human condition are now at stake. This volume contributes to this growing body of work. It offers insights into some of the reflections and imaginaries that have inspired and legitimated both theoretical and practical programmes for ?crafting? humans, ranging from the religious/spiritualist and the philosophical/cultural to the secular and the scientific/scientistic; from the religious and mystical quest for human perfection to the biopolitical eugenic state of the twentieth century, and current theories of human enhancement. This volume discusses these topics in a synchronized way, as interrelated variants of the most central story in history, that of human perfectibility. - From the Table of Contents: Frank Ankersmit: Aftermaths and "Foremaths": History and Humans. - Moshe Idel: Crafting a Golem: the Creation o f an Artificial Anthropoid. - Antonis Liakos: The End of History as the Liminality o f the Human Condition: From Kojève to Agamben. - Roger Griffin: Bio-nomic Man (and Woman): Fantasies of Anthropological Revolution as a Reaction to Modernity's Nomic Crisis. - Merryn Ekberg: Eugenics: Past, Present, and Future. - Marius Turda: Crafting a Healthy Nation: European Eugenics in Historical Context. - Maria Sophia Quine: "Making Italians": Aryanism and Anthropology in Italy during the "Risorgimento". - Alison Bashford: Julian Huxley's Transhumanism. 197 Seiten, gebunden (Reflections on (In)Humanity; Vol. 5/V&R unipress/National Taiwan University Press 2013).
