What was the result of the Scopes "Monkey trial"?

History

svlad2 [7]3 years ago

The jury did not disappoint him. Scopes was found guilty and fined $100 (almost $1,300 in today's money). The Tennessee Supreme Court later upheld the constitutionality of the statute but overturned Scopes' conviction on a technicality. Bryan, meanwhile, died only five days after the conclusion of the Monkey Trial.

The Scopes "Monkey Trial" was a famous legal case in the United States that put the Butler Act to the test, which established that it was illegal in every educational establishment of the state of Tennessee "the teaching of any theory that denies the history of the Divine Creation of the man as it is explained in the Bible, and replace it with the teaching that man descends from an order of inferior animals". It is the most resounding legal case in the history of the ideological battle between creationism and evolutionism.

John Scopes, a high school teacher, was accused on May 5, 1925 of teaching evolution using a chapter of a textbook that was based on ideas inspired by Charles Darwin's book The Origin of Species. The trial involved two of the most brilliant lawyers of the time. On the one hand William Jennings Bryan, member of the congress, former Secretary of State, and three times presidential candidate was in charge of the prosecution and accusation, while the prominent litigation lawyer Clarence Darrow led the defense.

The process attracted enormous attention from the press (which was what immediately called it "the monkey's trial") and from the American public, especially when the famous lawyer Clarence Darrow agreed to defend the defendant. Despite his brilliant final plea, Scopes was convicted by the Court, albeit only a symbolic fine and not a prison sentence as requested by the prosecutor.

Reflects the link between geograhy and population trends in the United States?
pickupchik [31]

Uno de los rasgos característicos de las ciencias sociales en nuestros días es la conciencia generalizada de crisis y, en particular, la crisis de las divisiones disciplinarias existentes, El caracter insatisfactorio de los límites reconocidos entre las distintas especialidades científicas se pone de manifiesto por los esfuerzos que se realizan dentro de cada disciplina para rebasar dichos límites e incorporar teorías, métodos o puntos de vista procedentes de disciplinas limítrofes, estableciéndose así relaciones que hasta hace poco eran totalmente insospechadas. La evolución reciente de nuestra ciencia tras el descubrimiento del amplio campo de la geografía de la percepción y el comportamiento y el establecimiento de relaciones entre geógrafos y psicólogos constituye un ejemplo de ello, entre los muchos que podrían aducirse.

Es cada vez más evidente que se impone una reorganización de los campos del saber,y de los límites entre las distintas ramas especializadas de la ciencia. Un cierto número de científicos tienden a creer que se hace preciso una liquidación de muchas de las ramas científicas hoy existentes con vistas a una reorganización de los campos disciplinarios, para hacer posible una más libre y más imaginativa reflexión científica en la resolución de problemas concretos planteados.

En una situación como la presente, puede resultar particularmente fructífero el estudio del proceso de institucionalización de las ciencias. Si llegamos a comprender los factores que condujeron a la institucionalización de unas ciencias y al fracaso de los embriones de ciencias que podían facilitar marcos alternativos de desarrollo científico quizás estaríamos en condiciones de comprender su evolución posterior y de poder proceder más fácilmente a una reorganización de los campos del saber.

Desde esta perspectiva nos parece que resulta particularmente interesante una reflexión sobre el proceso de  institucionalización de la geografía y sobre la aparición de la comunidad científica de los geógrafos. Pero el análisis de los orígenes y evolución de esta ciencia y de la historia del pensamiento geográfico no debe hacerse con una intención apologética -como es corriente en las historias de la geografía y, de hecho, en la mayor parte de las historias de las diferentes ciencias- sino que debe realizarse para plantear problemas generales que son relevantes para las distintas ciencias sociales, a las que los geógrafos pueden aportar el conocimiento y experiencia que tienen de su propia ciencia.
