A obraRaça, Linguagem e Cultura , publicada em 1940, é uma coletânea de ensaios escritos por Franz Boas ao longo de sua carreira. O livro aborda questões centrais relacionadas à antropologia, incluindo o conceito de raça, a diversidade linguística e a relação entre cultura e personalidade.No livro, Boas critica fortemente as teorias raciais dominantes da época, que sustentavam a existência de hierarquias raciais e justificavam a opressão e a discriminação com base em diferenças biológicas. Ele argumenta que a ideia de raça como uma categoria fixa e hierarquicamente ordenada não tem fundamento científico e que as variações observadas entre os grupos humanos são o resultado ação da cultura.Boas também analisa a diversidade linguística e a relação entre linguagem e cultura. Ele enfatiza que cada língua é um sistema complexo e único, que molda o pensamento e a visão de mundo dos falantes. Boas rejeita a ideia de que certas línguas ou famílias linguísticas são superiores a outras e destaca a importância de se estudar e preservar a diversidade linguística como parte da riqueza cultural da humanidade.Outro aspecto central abordado na obra é a relação entre cultura e personalidade. Boas argumenta que as diferenças culturais não são determinadas por características inatas ou biológicas, mas sim pelo ambiente social e histórico em que os indivíduos estão inseridos. Ele defende a ideia de que a cultura molda a personalidade das pessoas, e não o contrário, refutando assim a crença de que certos traços culturais são resultado de características hereditárias.Assim,Raça, Linguagem e Culturaé uma obra fundamental de Boas que desafia visões raciais e culturais etnocêntricas, rejeitando o determinismo biológico e enfatizando a importância da relatividade cultural. Seus ensaios contribuem para a construção de uma antropologia mais inclusiva, que reconhece a diversidade humana e busca entender as culturas em seus próprios termos, sem hierarquias ou preconceitos.Neste Volume II, Cultura.
