Konstruksi sosial

Konstruksi sosial adalah semua kategori atau hal yang dibuat nyata oleh konvensi atau kesepakatan kolektif.^[1]^[2] Realitas yang dikonstruksikan secara sosial berkebalikan dengan hal alami, yang eksis bebas dari perilaku atau kepercayaan manusia.^[1]^[2]

Contoh mudah dari konstruksi sosial adalah makna dari suatu kata dan nilai dari uang kertas.^[3] Contoh lainnya, seperti ras, sebelumnya dianggap kontroversial tetapi sekarang ini diterima oleh konsensus dari para ilmuwan sebagai konstruksi sosial, bukan sesuatu hal yang alami.^[4]^[5]^[6] Contoh lain yang mungkin termasuk, adalah konsep-konsep untuk menciptakan teori ilmiah, masih menjadi bahan perdebatan filosofis yang terus berlanjut.^[7]^[8]

It was never accurate in the past, and it remains inaccurate when referencing contemporary human populations. Humans are not divided biologically into distinct continental types or racial genetic clusters. Instead, the Western concept of race must be understood as a classification system that emerged from, and in support of, European colonialism, oppression, and discrimination. It thus does not have its roots in biological reality, but in policies of discrimination. Because of that, over the last five centuries, race has become a social reality that structures societies and how we experience the world. In this regard, race is real, as is racism, and both have real biological consequences.
