520 1 $a"During the turbulent era of revolution and industrialization in nineteenth-century France, scholars searched for methods to distinguish individual dispositions to intelligence and good character. They also sought to prove the superiority of Europeans. In Labeling People Martin S. Staum explores the use of geography, phrenology, and ethnology to classify people, showing how early nineteenth-century concepts of racial inequality prefigured the imperialist associationist discourse of the Third Republic. Such ideas justified European tutelage of 'civilizable' peoples and provided an open invitation to dominate and exploit the 'uncivilizable.'"--BOOK JACKET.
