Discipline: Anthropology
What is meant with the “riddle of ‘race’”? Why does it show that we need an analysis of the classification of human differences since the 18thcentury, if we want to understand why refuting ‘race’ as a biological concept has not lead to the abolition of racism as a social practice today?
Discuss, in your essay,
(1) how we should understand how classifications of human differences work;
(2) how these classifications were historically related to racist social mechanisms; and
(3) two historical contexts in which a specific combination of racial classifications and social mechanisms was spread across a large part of the world.
For your essay, it is sufficient to restrict yourself to the concrete historical examples discussed during the course.
