The mainstream of American physical anthropology began as racist and eugenical science that defended slavery, restricted “non-Nordic” immigration, and justified Jim Crow segregation. After World War II, the field became more anti-racial than anti-racist. It has continued as a study of natural influences on human variation and thus continues to evade the social histories of inequitable biological variation. Also reflecting its occupancy of white space, biological anthropology continues to deny its own racist history and marginalizes the contributions of Blacks. Critical disciplinary history and a shift toward biocultural studies might begin an anti-racist human biology. 相似文献

近十多年来,美国的土著居民印第安人的组织,一再要求美国收藏骨骼标本的博物馆和大学的有关部门,归还他们祖先的遗骸,以便重新埋葬,从而双方发生了长期的争执。最近这个问题开始激化了。由于要求归还遗骸的压力增大,收藏骨骼的部门已陆续归还或答应归还,从而使美国的古人类研究处于困境。

The implementation of Project Tiger in India, 1973–1974, was justly hailed as a triumph of international environmental advocacy. It occurred as a growing number of conservation-oriented biologists were beginning to argue forcefully for scientifically managed conservation of species and ecosystems – the same scientists who would, by the mid-1980s, call themselves conservation biologists. Although India accepted international funds to implement Project Tiger, it strictly limited research posts to Government of India Foresters, against the protests of Indian and US biologists who hoped to conduct the scientific studies that would lead to better management and thus more effective conservation of the tiger. The foresters were not trained to conduct research, and in fact did not produce any of significance for the first 15 years of Project Tiger’s existence. The failure of biologists to gain access to India’s tigers in the 1970s was caused by many factors, but not least among them was a history of disdain among conservation-oriented biologists for government officials managing reserves, and the local politics of conservation. Project Tiger, then, serves as a case study for the discussion of the intersection of conservation biology with non-scientific concerns, including nationalism and the desire of the Indian government to more completely control its land.1I would like to thank the participants in the 2003 Southwest Colloquium for the Life Sciences for their constructive comments on an earlier version of this paper, as well as the two unusually helpful (anonymous) reviewers. 相似文献

Between 1963 and 1970, the Smithsonian Institution held a grant from the US Army to observe migratory patterns of pelagic
birds in the Central Pacific. For six years, the Pacific Ocean Biological Survey Program (POBSP) collected a vast amount of
data from a quarter of the globe little known to science, and difficult for civilians to access. Its reports were (and remain)
of great value to science. In 1969, however, the Program became embroiled in controversy. Some alleged that the Smithsonian,
by accepting the military's coin, had violated its own rules governing the receipt of government funds and the publication
of research. Recent investigations have pointed to a number of unexplained relationships between the POBSP and the Army, during
a period of intense activity in chemical and biological weapons testing. The controversy marked a watershed in Smithsonian-military
relations. As yet, its history is incomplete. What is known, however, suggests that the POBSP involved a highly problematic
mésalliance between science and secrecy during the height of the Cold War. Its gradual unfolding prompts questions of contemporary relevance
that await contemporary answers.
