IMBARAZZO...LA NUOVA ORTODOSSIA: LE DIFFERENZE TRA GRUPPI NN SONO SIGNIFICATIVE
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 17
85 percent of variation in the protein types could be accounted for by variation within populations and “races,” and only 15 percent by variation across them.

LA FONTE DELL IMBARAZZO
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 29
among human populations there are no differences large enough to support the concept of “biological race.”
Nota - Posizione 30
IL NUOVO CONSENSO
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 35
The orthodoxy goes further, holding that we should be anxious about any research into genetic differences
Nota - Posizione 36
DALL ORTODOSSIA ALL ANSIA
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 39
it is simply no longer possible to ignore average genetic differences among “races.”
Nota - Posizione 40
LA PREOCCUPAZIONE DI REICH

Groundbreaking advances in DNA sequencing
Nota - Posizione 40
IL FATTO NUOVO
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 41
what fraction of an individual’s genetic ancestry traces back to, say, West Africa 500 years ago
Nota - Posizione 42
UN IDEA DI COSA È POSSIBILE MISURARE
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 43
differences in genetic ancestry that happen to correlate to many of today’s racial constructs are real.
Nota - Posizione 44
ORA SAPPIAMO
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 47
well-meaning people who deny the possibility of substantial biological differences among human populations are digging themselves into an indefensible position,
Nota - Posizione 48
LA SORTE DEI BEN INTENZIONATI
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 48
whatever discoveries are made— and we truly have no idea yet what they will be— will be cited as “scientific proof” that racist prejudices and agendas have been correct
Nota - Posizione 49
ALTRO TIMORE X LE POSIZIONE DIFENSIVISTA
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 52
exploring whether the population mixture that has occurred in the last few hundred years in the Americas could be leveraged to find risk factors for prostate cancer,
Nota - Posizione 53
UN CASO CONCRETO DI UTILITÀ
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 54
disparity had not been possible to explain based on dietary and environmental differences, suggesting that genetic factors might play a role.
Nota - Posizione 55
TRA AFRO AM E EURO AM
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 62
Did this research rely on terms like “African-American” and “European-American” that are socially constructed, and did it label segments of the genome as being probably “West African” or “European” in origin? Yes.
Nota - Posizione 64
È UNA RICERCA RAZZISTA?
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 66
Finding genetic influences on a propensity for disease is one thing, they argue, but looking for such influences on behavior and cognition is another.

genetic variations in more than 20 genes that were predictive of performance on intelligence tests.
Nota - Posizione 74
ESITO
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 78
You will sometimes hear that any biological differences among populations are likely to be small, because humans have diverged too recently from common ancestors for substantial differences

he goes on to make the unfounded and irresponsible claim that this research is suggesting that genetic factors explain traditional stereotypes.
Nota - Posizione 87
L ACCUSA A WADE
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 87
key sources, for example, is the anthropologist Henry Harpending, who has asserted that people of sub-Saharan African ancestry have no propensity to work
Nota - Posizione 89
UNA XICOLOSA CITAZIONE...IN REALTÀ MAI FATTA
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 99
in typical African farming cultures, where weeding is done more with hoes than plows, black women tend to work harder than black men,
Nota - Posizione 99
L UNICA OSSERVAZIONE DI HARPENDING E WADE
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 105
European feudalism was based on private property in land and this was absent from traditional West Africa. Why? Because land was scarce in Western Europe, but not in Africa, where the scarce factor was people; and control over them was exercised through monopolies of the “means of destruction” (horses, guns etc.), not the means of production.

ALTRA AFFERMAZIONE PRIVATA WATSON...SI NOTI CHE MOLTE RICERCHE SU QS PUNTI SONO SYAYE STOPPATE
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 127
East Asian students tended to be conformist because of selection for conformity
Nota - Posizione 127
ALTRA CONGETTURA RIFERITA PRIVATAMENTE
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 132
they start with the accurate observation that many academics are implausibly denying the possibility of average genetic differences among human populations, and then end with a claim
Nota - Posizione 133
COSA RENDE INSIDIOSE QS AFFERMAZIONI?
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 135
Something must be done to shut up the Watsons, Wades, and Harpendings so that the Reichs and Shapiros can continue to get funding without danger
Nota - Posizione 136
LA FRECCIATA DI SAILER
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 139
he was brought up to be a good liberal, which entails believing in a lot of obvious falsehoods. But he’s smart, and the current of discovery in genetics strongly undermines some of those liberal beliefs.
Nota - Posizione 140
COCHRANE SU REICH
Evidenzia ( giallo) - Posizione 145
