racialism

is the philosophical position that races exist and collective difference existed between such categories. As a doctrine, it is not in itself dangerous, even if the racial essence is thought to entail moral and intellectual dispositions. Provided positive moral qualities are distributed across the races, each can be respected, can have its 'separate but equal' place.
