Social constructionism about race

这个项目旨在表明，没有种族，只有种族化的群体。种族曾经被认为是生物学上真实存在的，这一观点越来越被专家们所否定。种族通常被认为是一种社会建构，这通常意味着种族是真实的社会群体。这个项目旨在证明，当种族被社会定义时，它就失去了概念上和历史上的特殊性，种族分类应该被完全抛弃。该项目的预期结果是学术和公众对种族分类的转变。这个项目发展并捍卫了种族化群体的范畴，作为历史上最具误导性和危险的观念之一的替代品。

This project aims to show that there are no races, only racialised groups. Race was once thought to be biologically real, a position which is increasingly rejected by specialists. Now race is commonly believed to be a social construct, which is often taken to mean that races are real social groups. This project aims to demonstrate that when race is defined socially it loses its conceptual and historical specificity, and that racial classification should be abandoned altogether. An expected outcome of the project is a scholarly and public shift away from racial classification. This project develops and defends the category of the racialised group as an alternative to one of history’s most misleading and dangerous ideas.
