A realist metaphysics of race : a context-sensitive, short-term retentionist, long-term revisionist approach /

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

This book defends a non-pragmatist social kind view of race, approaching the issue from the perspective of analytic philosophy. Heavily informed by contemporary philosophy of race, it argues against anti-realist and natural kind views while representing a new version of social kind theory.
