Abstract

The arguments of the parties in the debate between racial realists who do admit biological reality of Human races and racial ant-realists who refute it, are examined in the perspective of the history of “science of race”. Particular attention is put to genetics and genomics material that consist the base of the arguments under consideration. The main lines in contemporary race philosophy are outlined.
