Against the background of the results of surveys carried out previously on American, Polish, and European academics, we present new data on the perception of races among non-biological anthropologists. In five case studies, we surveyed 585 respondents belonging to the academic community (of biologists and cultural anthropologists) and ordinary people from three European countries: Poland, Czech Republic and England. All groups were concordant on the question "Are there [biological] races in humans?" - replying mostly in the affirmative. For the number of races that humans can be divided into, respondents' views were discordant depending on the society they live in. Regarding opinions about supposed racial characteristics, the response patterns of all groups were again much alike: The vast majority of the participants thought of human races in terms of morphological differences, but mostly did not see an association between race and intelligence, personality and religion. We suggest that the persistence of racial thinking about human diversity depends, to a large extent, on schooling and education, and certainly is a consequence of lack of academic and public discourse on race.

种族和人类多样性感知:五个欧洲案例研究。

在先前对美国,波兰和欧洲学者进行的调查结果的背景下,我们提出了有关非生物人类学家对种族的看法的新数据。在五个案例研究中,我们对来自学术界(生物学家和文化人类学家)和来自三个欧洲国家(波兰,捷克共和国和英国)的普通人的585名受访者进行了调查。所有小组都对“人类中存在[生物]种族”这个问题持一致意见。-主要是肯定的答复。对于人类可以划分的种族数量,受访者的观点因他们所居住的社会而异。关于假定的种族特征的观点,所有群体的反应方式再次相似:绝大多数参与者从形态差异的角度考虑了种族,但大多数人没有看到种族与智力,性格和宗教之间的联系。我们建议,关于人类多样性的种族思想的持久性在很大程度上取决于学校的教育程度,这当然是缺乏关于种族的学术和公共论述的结果。
