This article is about the historical race concept. For the historical term, see Aryan. For the ideology, see Aryanism. For other uses, see Aryan (disambiguation).

The fourth edition of Meyers Konversationslexikon (Leipzig, 1885–1890) shows the Caucasian race (in shades of grayish blue-green) as comprising Aryans, Semites, and Hamites. Aryans are subdivided into European Aryans and Indo-Aryans (for those now called Indo-Iranians).

The Aryan race is an obsolete historical race concept which emerged in the late 19th-century to describe people of Indo-European heritage as a racial grouping.[1][2] Anthropological, historical and archaeological evidence do not support the validity of this concept.[3][4]

The concept derives from the notion that the original speakers of the Proto-Indo-European languages and their descendants up to the present day constitute a distinctive race or belonging to a subrace of the obsolete racial classification of Caucasian race, alongside the Semitic race and the Hamitic race.[5][6] This taxonomic approach to categorizing human population groups is now considered to be misguided and biologically meaningless due to the close genetic similarity and complex interrelationships between these groups.[7][8][9]

The term was adopted by various racist and antisemitic writers during the nineteenth century, including Arthur de Gobineau, Richard Wagner and Houston Stewart Chamberlain,[10] whose scientific racism influenced later Nazi racial ideology.[11] By the 1930s, the concept had been associated with Nazism and Nordicism,[12] and used to support the white supremacist ideology of Aryanism which portrayed the Aryan race as a "master race",[13] with non-Aryans as racially inferior (Untermensch) and an existential threat to be exterminated.[14] Under Nazi rule, these ideas formed an essential part of the state ideology that led to the Holocaust.[15][16]

Etymology

Main article: Aryan

The term Aryan has generally been used to describe the Proto-Indo-Iranian language root *arya which was the ethnonym the Indo-Iranians adopted to describe Aryans. Its cognate in Sanskrit is the word ārya (Devanāgarī: आर्य), in origin an ethnic self-designation, in Classical Sanskrit meaning "honourable, respectable, noble".[17][18] The Old Persian cognate ariya- (Old Persian cuneiform: 𐎠𐎼𐎡𐎹) is the ancestor of the modern name of Iran and ethnonym for the Iranian people.[19]

The term Indo-Aryan is still commonly used to describe the Indic half of the Indo-Iranian languages, i.e., the family that includes Sanskrit and modern languages such as Hindi-Urdu, Bengali, Odia Nepali, Punjabi, Gujarati, Romani, Kashmiri, Sinhala and Marathi.[20]

History

In the 18th century, the most ancient known Indo-European languages were those of the ancient Indo-Iranians. The word Aryan was therefore adopted to refer not only to the Indo-Iranian peoples, but also to native Indo-European speakers as a whole, including the Romans, Greeks, and the Germanic peoples. It was soon recognised that Balts, Celts, and Slavs also belonged to the same group. It was argued that all of these languages originated from a common root – now known as Proto-Indo-European – spoken by an ancient people who were thought of as ancestors of the European, Iranian, and Indo-Aryan peoples.[21]

Romanticism and Darwinism

The influence of Romanticism in Germany saw a revival of the intellectual quest for "the German language and traditions" and a desire to "discard the cold, artificial logic of Enlightenment".[22] After Darwin's 1859 publication of On the Origin of Species and publicization of the theorized model of Proto-Indo-European languages, the Romantics convicted that language was a defining factor in national identity, combined with the new ideas of Darwinism.[23] The German nationalists misemployed the scientific theory of natural selection for the rationalization of the supposed fitness of some races over others, although Darwin himself never applied his theory of fitness to races or languages. The misleading mixture of pseudoscience and Romanticism produced newer ideologies of distorted Social Darwinist interpretation of race to explain "the superior biological-spiritual-linguistic essence of the Northern Europeans", who themselves conducted these self-congratulatory studies.[24][25][clarification needed] Subsequently, the German Romantics' inquiry for a "pure" national heritage lead to the interpretation of the ancient speakers of Proto-Indo-European languages as a distinct progenitors of "racial-linguistic-national stereotype".[26][27]

Invention of the Aryan race

Aryan, an ethnocultural self-designative identity of Indo-Iranians, began to be associated with racially-oriented interpretations as "a tall, light-complexioned, blonde, blue-eyed race".[28] According to David W. Anthony, the word Aryan was specifically chosen because the authors of oldest known religious texts—the Rig Veda and Avesta—called themselves Aryans, who lived in ancient India and Iran.[29] Scholars point out that, the idea of being an Aryan as asserted in the Rig Veda was cultural, religious, and lingustic, not racial; nor does the Vedas contemplate racial purity.[30][31][32]

However, in the context of nineteenth-century physical anthropology and scientific racism, the term Aryan race came to be misapplied to all people descended from the Proto-Indo-Europeans – a subgroup of the Europid or Caucasian race,[27][33] in addition to the Indo-Iranians (who are the only people known to have used Arya as an endonym in ancient times). This usage was considered to include most modern inhabitants of Australasia, the Caucasus, Central Asia, Europe, Latin America, North America, Siberia, South Asia, Southern Africa, and West Asia.[34] Such claims became increasingly common during the early nineteenth century, when it was commonly believed that the Aryans originated in the southwest Eurasian steppes (present-day Russia and Ukraine).

Max Müller is often identified as the first writer to mention an Aryan race in English,[35] and inaugurated the racial interpretation of the Vedic passages.[36] In his Lectures on the Science of Language (1861),[37] Müller referred to Aryans as a "race of people". At the time, the term race had the meaning of "a group of tribes or peoples, an ethnic group".[38] He occasionally used the term Aryan race afterward,[39] but in his book, Biolographies of Words and the Home of the Aryas (1888), he writes, " [...] ethnologist who speaks of Aryan race, Aryan blood, Aryan eyes, and hair, is a great sinner as a linguist [...]".[40] Müller's concept of Aryan was later construed to imply a biologically distinct sub-group of humanity, by writers such as Arthur de Gobineau, who argued that the Aryans represented a superior branch of humanity.[37] Gobineau attempted to identify the races of Europe as Aryan and associated it with the sons of Noah emphasizing superiority, and categorized non-Aryan as an intrusion of Semitic race.[41] Müller objected to the mixing of linguistics and anthropology, and stated, "[t]hese two sciences, the Science of Language and the Science of Man, cannot, at least for the present, be kept too much asunder; [...] I must repeat, what I have said many times before, it would be as wrong to speak of Aryan blood as of dolichocephalic grammar".[42]

While the Aryan race theory remained popular, particularly in Germany, some authors opposed it, in particular Otto Schrader, Rudolph von Jhering and the ethnologist Robert Hartmann (1831–1893), who proposed to ban the notion of Aryan from anthropology.[37] Helena Blavatsky advocated the idea of root-races in which each cyclical rise and fall of seven consecutive root-races in the scale of spiritual development, each of which was divided into seven sub-races before ascending progressively superior root-races; in her cosmogony, the Aryan race was the fifth root-race, proceeded by the Atlanteans, and emphasized the principle of elitism and racial hierarchy.[43]

By the late 19th century the steppe theory of Indo-European origins was challenged by a view that the Indo-Europeans originated in ancient Germany or Scandinavia – or at least that in those countries the original Indo-European ethnicity had been preserved. The word Aryan was consequently used even more restrictively – and even less in keeping with its Indo-Iranian origins – to mean Germanic, Nordic or Northern Europeans.[44] This implied division of Caucasoids into Aryans, Semites and Hamites was also based on linguistics, rather than based on physical anthropology; it paralleled an archaic tripartite division in anthropology between Nordic, Alpine and Mediterranean races.[citation needed] The German origin of the Aryans was especially promoted by the archaeologist Gustaf Kossinna, who claimed that the Proto-Indo-European peoples were identical to the Corded Ware culture of Neolithic Germany. This idea was widely circulated in both intellectual and popular culture by the early twentieth century,[45] and is reflected in the concept of Corded-Nordics in Carleton S. Coon's 1939 The Races of Europe.[citation needed]

Aryanism and racism

Theories of racial supremacy

The term was adopted by various racists and antisemetic writers during the nineteenth century for the promotion of pseudoscientific and pseudohistoric ideologies such as scientific racism, Nordicism and Aryanism.

In 1853, Arthur de Gobineau published An Essay on the Inequality of the Human Races, in which he identified the Aryan race as the white race, and the only civilized one. Further, he hypothesized that the northern Europeans had migrated across the world and founded the major civilizations, before being diluted through racial mixing with indigenous populations described as racially inferior, leading to the progressive decay of the ancient Aryan civilizations.[2] In 1899, Houston Stewart Chamberlain published what is described as "one of the most important proto-Nazi texts", The Foundations of the Nineteenth Century, in which he theorized an existential struggle to the death between a superior German-Aryan race and a destructive Jewish-Semitic race.[46]

In 1916, Madison Grant published The Passing of the Great Race, a polemic against interbreeding between "Aryan" Americans with immigrant "inferior races", which according to him were, Poles, Czechs, Jews, and Italians. The book was a best-seller at the time.[28] In 1920, H. G. Wells's bestseller The Outline of History,[47] used the term in the plural ("the Aryan peoples"). In 1922, in A Short History of the World, Wells depicted a highly diverse group of various "Aryan peoples" learning "methods of civilization" and then, by means of different uncoordinated movements that Wells believed were part of a larger dialectical rhythm of conflict between settled civilizations and nomadic invaders that also encompassed Aegean and Mongol peoples inter alia, "subjugat[ing]" – "in form" but not in "ideas and methods" – "the whole ancient world, Semitic, Aegean and Egyptian alike".[48]

The Aryan race in Nazi Germany

Main article: Nazi racial theories
See also: Racial policy of Nazi Germany

Subhumans and racial laws

Racial policies of the Nazi Germany, the 1935 Nuremberg Laws, and the racist doctrines that of Adolf Hitler, considered Jews and Slavs, including Poles, Czechs, Russians, Roma and Serbs as "racially inferior sub-humans" (German: Untermensch, lit. 'sub-human');[49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56] the term was also applied to Mixed race and Black people.[57][56] However, a definition of "Aryan race" that included all non-Jewish Europeans was deemed unacceptable by the Nazis, therefore the Expert Committee on Questions of Population and Racial Policy of 1933 bought together predominant Nazi figures such as Alfred Ploetz, Fritz Thyssen, and Ernst Rüdin to plan the course of Nazi racial policy, whom defined Aryan as someone who is "tribally related to the German blood and descendant of a Volk".[58][59] Hitler regularly invoked the Social Darwinist concepts such as, higher evolution (German: Höherentwicklung), struggle for existence (German: Existenzkampf), evolution (German: Entwicklung), including the theories that of Ernst Haeckel, for his Nazi racial ideology, which had played the central role in the chapter "Nation and Race" of his book, Mein Kampf.[60]

Nazi eugenics and Nordic supremacy

See also: Nordicism

In 1938, the Reich Ministry of Education released the German biology curriculum that reflected the curriculum developed by the National Socialist Teachers League which had emphasized on the Social Darwinst interpretation of the evolution of human races.[61] Hans Weinert, who had joined the Schutzstaffel and worked for the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute of Anthropology publishing theories of Nazi eugenics and racial evolution, claimed the Nordic race as a highly evolved race, and Aboriginal Australians as being the lowest ranking race in the racial hierarchy.[62] Hans F. K. Günther was considered to be the most influential Nazi anthropologist, although he was not professionally trained. Günther's racist writings on Nordicism was suffused with that of Gobineau and Darwinism, who believed the Nordic race had originated in the northern Europe and spread through conquest; this had expressed approval of the Nazi eugenics policies, and had critical influence on scientific racism,[63] including attraction of applauses from Hitler, who included it as a recommended reading material for the Nazi Party members.[64] Nazi racial theories pseudoscientically considered the "purest stock of Aryans" as the Nordic people, being identified with physical anthropological features such as tall, white-skin, blue-eye, narrow and straight nose, doliocephalic skull, prominent chins and blond haired race, and peoples such as the Scandinavians, Germans, English and French.[65][66]

White supremacy

Main article: White supremacy
See also: White nationalism and White pride

Many white supremacist neo-Nazi groups and prison gangs, notably in the United States, pseudoscientifically view themselves as part of an Aryan race, including the Aryan Brotherhood, Aryan Nations, Aryan Guard, Aryan Republican Army, White Aryan Resistance, Aryan Circle, Aryan Brotherhood of Texas, and others.[67][68]
