Abstract

Osnovni ciljevi ovoga rada jesu istražiti prirodoznanstvene argumente, dokaze i tvrdnje glede roda i spola pitajući se determinira li spol rodno ponašanje pojedinaca. Rad sociološki pristupa tvrdnjama iz biologije te nastoji istražiti društvenu uvjetovanost načina na koji način prirodne znanosti tumače rodno ponašanje muškaraca i žena. Nadalje, u radu se problematizira stvaranje nove paradigme, oslanjajući se na Kuhnov koncept znanosti. Naime, rodna problematika tema je brojnih studija, a primjerice evolucijska psihologija i sociobiologija nastoje ponuditi dokaze u prilog tome da je ljudsko ponašanje nasljedno. Pitanje rodne problematike između ostalog zahtijeva analizu bioloških argumenata u smislu postojanja specifičnih biologijskih karakteristika koje uvjetuju rodno razlikovanje muškaraca i žena.

Abstract (english)

The basic aims of this paper are to explore natural science arguments, evidences and claims regarding sex and gender with a question if sex determines individual's gender behavior. The paper sociologically approaches biological claims and tends to determine social conditionality of the way in which natural sciences explain gender behavior of men and women. Furthermore, the paper discusses the creation of new paradigm, relying on Kuhn's scientific concept. The gender issue is discussed in many studies and evolutionary psychology and sociobiology tend to present evidences in regard of inheritable human behavior. The question of gender, beyond others, needs analysis of biological argument concerning the existence of specific biological characteristics that condition gender differences between men and women.
