It is the first comprehensive study of the transnational scientific community that in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries attempted to classify Europe's biological races. Anthropological race classifiers produced parallel geographies, histories and hierarchies of European peoples that were crucial to the creation of national identities and to the overtly political race discourses of eugenics and popular racist ideologues. They lent nationalism the invaluable prestige of natural science, and traced the histories, conflicts and relationships of ‘national races’ back into prehistory. Racial national character stereotypes meanwhile supported competing political ideologies. The book examines the interplay between class, gender and national identity narratives and the tensions and interactions between the scientific and political agendas of classifiers. Within the elaborate transnational networks of scientific communities, for example, they had to reconcile competing national narratives.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →One of the most important anthropological overviews of European racial types ever published. Although some of its conclusions have since been eclipsed by DNA studies, this work remains a standard in racial typology. Harvard professor of anthropology, Carleton S. Coon, concluded that: - The white race is of dual origin consisting of Upper Paleolithic (mixture of sapiens and neanderthals) types and Mediterranean (purely sapiens) types; - The Upper Paleolithic peoples are the truly indigenous peoples of Europe; - The Mediterraneans invaded Europe in large numbers during the Neolithic period; - When reduced Upper Paleolithic survivors and Mediterraneans mix, a process of "dinarization" occurs which produces a hybrid with non-intermediate features, epitomized by the Dinaric race. Contains the full set of original photographic plates. Once a college standard, this book has been suppressed for 50 years.
