# The Descent of Man (1871) publishes ranked passages on races and 'savages' as a dated book, not as twenty chapter-Facts

Date: 1871

## The fact

In 1871 The Descent of Man published ranked passages on races and 'savages' as [Darwin](/people/charles-darwin)'s public prose. The instrument is that dated book-cluster, not twenty chapter-Facts and not a 20th-century statute. Charles Darwin's documented role is: He wrote the 1871 book. Later eugenic statutes are not this text. Ranked passages on human groups are his public prose.

## Context

The improving Descent row stores common descent of humans. This stores the ranking passages. Sharing later misuses as reception is required without back-dating them. The setting of The Descent of Man (1871) publishes ranked passages on races and 'savages' as a dated book, not as twenty chapter-Facts is the public file around 1871-02-01. Shared offices, unnamed crews, printers, or later editors may appear without becoming this instrument. Driver [income-inequality](/drivers/income-inequality) is attached because the significance names a mechanism from this act, not because a standing list needed coverage.

Shared responsibility is part of The Descent of Man (1871) publishes ranked passages on races and 'savages' as a dated book, not as twenty chapter-Facts. Naming Charles Darwin does not delete co-authors, institutions, or later transmitters. The lag from 1871-02-01 to any measured indicator is not treated as zero. Alternative explanations — weather, other armies, later statutes, or independent cultural change — remain live where the sources do not close them.

## Significance

Worsening path from The Descent of Man (1871) publishes ranked passages on races and 'savages' as a dated book, not as twenty chapter-Facts on 1871-02-01. A public ranking of human groups inside a scientific book is an inequality path stored as cost. The evolutionary argument of the same book sits on the improving twin, not as a rebate here. The welfare reading on this path is worsening.

## What is established and what is not

Established: a sourced public record of The Descent of Man (1871) publishes ranked passages on races and 'savages' as a dated book, not as twenty chapter-Facts under 1871-02-01 for Charles Darwin. Established: a sourced public record of The Descent of Man (1871) publishes ranked passages on races and 'savages' as a dated book, not as twenty chapter-Facts under 1871-02-01.

Later competitions, monuments, translations, UNESCO listings, museums, and adaptations are not converted into extra lifetime acts.

If a number is not in the two records named above, it is not supplied here.

Confidence is stated on the impact path, not hidden in adjectives. One 1871 book. Do not split chapters. Do not store Galton's later eugenics as Darwin's statute. Mixed effects of The Descent of Man (1871) publishes ranked passages on races and 'savages' as a dated book, not as twenty chapter-Facts are separate paths.

The attached driver is income-inequality. The welfare reading used in this dossier is worsening. That reading is an impact-path choice, not a property stored on the Fact itself.
