"Geographical Distribution Patterns of Various Genes": genetic studies of human variation after 1945.

Studies in history and philosophy of biological and biomedical sciences - 1 Sept 2014

Lipphardt Veronika

Abstract excerpt

After WWII, physical anthropologists and human geneticists struggled hard to demonstrate distance from 'racial science' and 'eugenics'. This was a crucial factor in the 'revolution' of physical anthropology in the 1950s, as contemporary accounts referred to it. My paper examines the apparent turn during this period from anthropometric measurements to blood-group analysis, and from 'races' to 'small endogamous...
