Transformism, Darwinism, Eugenics, Reductionism, Nature, GeneticsAbstract
The question of evolution was raised before and outside the hypotheses formulated in biology. The influence of Darwinism has in turn led the humanities to question human specificities (language, consciousness). This naturalization of humans can, however, lead to biological reductionism. Here, the concept of evolution is explored from the perspective of humanities.
