Politics in the Scientific Classification of Human Bodies A Presentation by: Katheryn Wright

Aims Understand how Foucault’s notion of “political anatomy” serves as a framework for Schiebinger’s analysis Discuss specific ways humankind was to be divided Articulate the difference between environmentalism and biological determinism, making sure to understand basic assumptions about nature

Aims (2) Realize the conflict between scientific sexism and scientific racism, both of which serve as reaction to the Revolution’s claim for ‘natural’ rights Articulate the difference between “the doctrine of the great chain of being” and “the doctrine of sexual complementarity” Understand the “body politic,” or how the body is infused with power Discuss how the practitioners of science affect science’s outcome

“Political Anatomy” What does this mean?
