ANTH 233 - Race, Class, and Ethnicity

Institution:

CUNY Queens College

Subject:

Anthropology

Description:

Physical differences among human populations are complex, continuous, and include many more invisible than visible traits. After brief consideration of human genetic variation around the world, we examine cultural schemes that segment and compress this diversity into a small number of "races." Racial systems emerge in particular historical and cultural settings, always involve differences in power, and vary from society to society.
