A common argument against the taxonomic validity of race is that there is more genetic variation within than between races and so races must not be genetically different enough to be subspecies. This argument comes from a 1972 paper by the Harvard geneticist Richard Lewontin ( Lewontin 1972. Unfortunately, Lewontin never explained why an Fst value o...
