Margaret Mead / 米德

Margaret Mead appears in 113.亨丽埃塔与那场将人类学送上审判席的谋杀案 through the Columbia University anthropology response to Henrietta Schmerler / 亨丽埃塔·施梅勒’s murder. The source says Mead argued that women could be killed even in so-called civilized communities, while also criticizing Schmerler for not securing enough female protection.

The episode uses Mead to show how a discipline can recognize women’s danger and still slide into Victim Blaming As Institutional Defense. Her response is presented as part of a broader institutional field where scholars worried about reputation, field access, and rules for women researchers after the case.
