Koncepcja rasy we lwowskiej szkole typologicznej
Journal Title: Przegląd Humanistyczny - Year 2018, Vol 62, Issue 3
Abstract
The article presents the concept of race developed in 1913–1938 by the so-called Lviv typological school, constituting one of the factions of the then actively developed Polish anthropology. The author discusses the concepts of this school in the broad context of the era, stating that the concepts of the school, including the concepts of its founder – Jan Czekanowski, built on the grounds of the Mendelian inheritance theory and fascination with quantitative methods, despite seeking objectivity were determined by the then spreading idea of human racial diversity.<br/><br/>
