To this day, “racial theories” of one form or another haunt the population and the sciences. For example, in genetics.
The fallacy that differences in behavior between ethnic groups must always be genetically determined is based on the dogmas already presented .
However, if one recognizes the differentiation of the mechanisms of the dialectical genesis of species, from the biological to the psychonomic, then “races” in terms of behavior also disappear. These two forms of genesis are not mutually exclusive; rather, the psychonomic complements the biological.
It is ignorance of the cultural and social conditioning of one’s own self that leads to the fallacy of the supposed existence of races.
However, the different behaviors of ethnic groups (see, for example, Levi-Bruhl, Thurnwald , etc.) are not inherited genetically, but culturally (see Vygotsky, Luria), i.e. psychonomically . And, like bionomic (genetically inherited) species, they are an adaptation to the respective environment.
Through the perception of the cultural and social transmission of behaviors (framework of action) and modes of perception (framework of meaning), psychonomic species emerge , formerly called pseudospecies, which are not genetically determined and therefore cannot be influenced by, for example, genetic engineering.
