This is the first full-length study of the history of intellectual
and scientific racism in modern South Africa. Ranging broadly
across disciplines in the social sciences, sciences and humanities,
it charts the rise of scientific racism during the late nineteenth
century and the subsequent decline of biological determinism from
the mid-twentieth century, and considers the complex relationship
between theories of essential racial difference and the political
rise of segregation and apartheid. Saul Dubow draws extensively on
comparable studies of intellectual racism in Europe and the United
States to demonstrate the selective absorption of widely prevalent
conceptions of racial difference in the particular historical
context of South Africa, and the issues he addresses are of
relevance to both Africanist and international students of racism
and race relations.
