Abstract In her book Resisting Reality, Haslanger proposes a focal analysis of race and gender as social classes. In this article Betti claims that the model approach to the history of ideas shares interesting similarities to Haslanger’s focal analysis, from the methodological point of view. Attracting attention to these similarities, and thus seeing Haslanger’s focal analysis as an interpretive model in the sense of Betti and van den Berg (2014) seems to be useful in at least four ways. In this article Betti will briefly discuss all four.
