Purity
This article uses the concept of purity to explore the thinking of purebred animal breeders and that of eugenicists in Britain and North America between 1880 and 1920. It begins with an explanation of why such a study is important and continues with the historical background of purity's role in animal breeding over the nineteenth century and an assessment of the theoretical foundations of Francis Galton's eugenics. The article argues that the sha…
Westernizing Arabian Horses
This article reviews Western approaches to the regulation of Arabian horse breeding as it shifted west and globalized, focusing on the period between 1880 and 2020. The move to “preserve” the Arabian horse within a Western framework is central to this history, but different approaches have been adopted over time. I consider examples from nineteenth century Poland, England, and Russia as contexts for understanding how debates about and approaches …
Beauty or Statistics
Beauty or Statistics, by Bert Theunissen, is a valuable and innovative piece of scholarship based on meticulous research. It advances a broadening field devoted to understanding how animal breeding evolved in relation to the science of genetics, arguing that it is too simplistic to see the infiltration of genetics into practice as merely modernization. The book looks at the interface between science and practice in the breeding of farm animals, w…
North American Beef Breeding and the Modernization of the International Cattle Breeding Industries, 1950–2000
This article deals with transformations in beef cattle breeding practices in North America from 1950 to 2000, and the implication of these changes across the Western world. It was a period of profound adjustment for beef cattle breeders, involving battles over genetic defects, the importation of new breeds, changing standards in relation to husbandry, and the extension of quantitative genetic breeding practices. These innovations would be echoed …

White Collies, Beauty or Genetic Defect
This article explores the relationship between standards of beauty and genetic knowledge in regulations for the breeding of nonhuman animals. Collie breeding and views concerning the coat color white, in North America and Britain between 1870 and the present, illustrate how advances in dog coat genetics did little to alter perceptions concerning beauty and/or quality held in the different countries. Today, North American Collie breeders consider …
