description |
While we know that racial theories have been built on and engendered
a range of “scientific” subdisciplines – from Lamarckianism to Social
Darwinism, eugenics, degeneracy theory, anthropology, philology,
and social psychology – we have not really interrogated the epistemic
principles, the ways of knowing – on which racisms rely. Folk and
scientific theories of race have rarely, if ever, been about somatics
alone. What is so striking as we turn to look at the epistemic principles
that shaped nineteenth-century enquiries into race and sexuality is that
both were founded on criteria for truth that addressed invisible coordinates
of race by appealing to both visual and verbal forms of knowledge
at the same time . . . Racism is not only a “visual ideology” where
the visible and somatic confirms the “truth” of the self. Euro-American
racial thinking related the visible markers of race to the protean hidden
properties of different human kinds. Nineteenth-century bourgeois
orders were predicated on these forms of knowledge that linked the
visible, physiological attributes of national, class, and sexual Others to
what was secreted in their depths – and none of these could be known
without also designating the psychological dispositions and sensibilities
that defined who and what was echte European |
