A new project is thus begun - even if the old theory failed, some of the correlations the old theorists were noticing still exist (say, in mortality rates, or education outcomes); how are we to explain them? Sociologists try social constructivist theories with varying success.
But by the late 20th century two things get in the way of this: (1) explaining heritability - a lot of misunderstanding about what heritability is in popular discourse, it doesn't necessitate a biological explanation, but biology does provide one way and something is needed.
(2) genetic clustering tracks intuitive racial categories, awkward for social constructivism. [[+ awkward for modern proponent to admit, but surely factor that biotheories receive persistent funding and support from racists in broader culture even while in scientific wilderness]]
So modern biological theory of race must avoid the hubris (nothing in social science has explanatory power that was ascribed to race) and ties to mass murder, while seeing what can be built upon new basis in modern genetics. Normal science would consist in explaining heritability
Ok I'm done, that's what I reckon is a self-understanding that would make sense to, and is endorsable by, a modern proponent of biological theories of race (well the ones who ain't Nazis! I presume they're not much interested anyway). How'd I do?
