Abstract: | Consensus over the utility and validity of the race concept no longer exists in anthropology. More anthropologists today reject the concept than accept it. Women have played a significant role in the concept's deconstruction. Factors that have contributed to this change include the discipline's concepts, traditions, and domain; new data; new research paradigms; feminist viewpoints; biographical histories; and the external social milieu. |
