| مستخلص: | U svojoj inačici filozofije biologije Neven Sesardić izvodi dalekosežne moralne i političke posljedice određenih genetičkih istraživanja. On pretpostavlja da su uočene razlike u kvocijentu inteligencije između crnih i bijelih studenata urođene i da one ne mogu biti objašnjene niti promijenjene bilo kakvim utjecajem iz okoliša. Na toj osnovi on razvija teoriju o genetski određenoj inferiornosti crne rase. Teorija tvrdi da su svi podaci o društvenim i ekonomskim nedostatcima crne rase učinak njihovog lošeg biološkog nasljeđa, a ne društvene segregacije ili rasne diskriminacije. Prema tome, bilo koja politika usmjerena na smanjivanje ili eliminiranje društvenih i ekonomskih razlika između siromašnih i bogatih ljudi, kao što je politika pozitivne diskriminacije, osuđena je na propast. U ovom se članku suprotstavljam Sesardićevu filozofskom tumačenju genetike i njegovim izvodima koji se tiču politike i društva. Pokazujem da mnogi relevantni genetičari ne prihvaćaju takvo filozofsko tumačenje i njegove političke posljedice. Suprotno Sesardićevoj tvrdnji da su svi environmentalisti zaraženi ljevičarskom političkom ideologijom, pokazujem da njih njihova znanstvena istraživanja, a ne apriorna politička uvjerenja, navode na odbacivanje jednostranih hereditarističkih filozofskih tumačenja i njihove političke primjene. Posebno sam usmjeren na povijest ropstva u Americi i na aktualne izvještaje o rasnoj diskriminaciji kao na važne elemente društvenog okoliša koji ne mogu biti zanijekani u bilo kojem ozbiljnom pokušaju objašnjavanja klasnih i rasnih odnosa u suvremenoj Americi. In his version of philosophy of biology Neven Sesardić infers far-reaching moral and political consequences of certain research in genetics. He assumes that detected differences in IQ between white and black students are inherited and that they cannot be explained or changed by any kind of influence from environment. On such basis he develops a theory of genetically determined inferiority of black race. That theory states that all data about social and economic failures of Afro-Americans are the result of their poor biological inheritance and not of social segregation or racial discrimination. Therefore, any policy intended to diminish or to eliminate social and economic differences between poor and rich people, such as affirmative action policy, is doomed to fail. In this paper I oppose to Sesardić’s philosophical interpretation of genetics and his inferring to politics and society. I argue that many relevant geneticists do not accept such philosophical interpretation and its political consequences. Counter to Sesardić’s strong statement that all environmentalists are infected by leftist political ideology, the claim is that their scientific research, and not their a priori political convictions, lead them to abandon one-sided hereditaristic philosophical interpretation and its political implementation. I specially focus on the history of slavery in America and current records of race discrimination as important elements of social environment which cannot be denied in any serious attempt to explain class and race relations in contemporary America. |
