Social Inequality, Analytical Egalitarianism, And The March Towards Eugenic Explanations In The Social Sciences by Laurence S. Moss

Essays in Honor of William Darity Jr.

This book delves into the complex interplay between social inequality and the pursuit of analytical egalitarianism within the social sciences, while critically examining the historical and contemporary trends towards eugenic explanations. It explores how these explanations have been used to justify social hierarchies and perpetuate inequality, challenging the reader to consider the ethical implications of such theories. Through a thorough analysis, the book advocates for a more equitable approach to understanding social dynamics, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and dismantling biased scientific narratives that have historically marginalized certain groups.
