Talk:History of eugenics

I added one, as article focusses on california and the panama pacific exhibition. i think adding it to the bay area task force is stretching it. I will try to add other projects.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 07:10, 27 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

"However, Davenport's racist views were not supported by all geneticists at Cold Spring Harbor"

What does this mean in this context? What were his "racist" views? This piece could use clarification. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.23.92.237 (talk) 18:23, 21 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Based on the cited source (Roll-Hansen)[1] I removed the text about Sweden. It was Roll-Hansen's (among others) reasarch that was the basis for the journalistic creation of this story. As the 2017 article by Roll-Hansen makes clear, he completely disavows this story and when there is a conflict between the researcher and a journalists use of his material, the journalistic version can't be given any value as a source. The removed text has no reliable source.

The first inclusive foreign-language overview of the history of eugenics and sterilization in Scandinavia was Eugenics and the Welfare state. (Broberg and Roll-Hansen 1995) In the autumn of 1997, this sort of information gave rise to a sensational story in mass media around the globe about a eugenic sterilization program in the Scandinavian welfare states comparable in extent and brutality to that of Hitler's Germany. It started with an article by the historian of ideas and cultural journalist Maciej Zaremba in the Swedish national daily newspaper Dagens Nyheter on August 20,1997.(47)[2]

In the 20th century, the idea of eugenics was imported to Korea from from Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan.^[1][2] Numerous massacres and discriminatory policies targeted the poor in Korea after the Japanese colonial period.^[3][4][5][6] During the 1970s and 80s, the military dictatorships of the Fourth and Fifth Republics of South Korea established various internment and concentration camps, most famously the so-called Brothers Home, which forcibly detained people from the lower classes (often falsely accused of being homeless). Scholars have argued the camp was guided by eugenicist principles.^[7] Additionally, from the mid 1970s to the mid 1990s, these dictatorships, as well as the currently ruling Sixth Republic which succeeded them, sterilized mentally ill and intellectually disabled individuals; the exact number of individuals sterilized is not known, but opposition politician Kim Hong Shin [ko] put the number at 175, while others believe it to have been much higher. A law imposed by Park Chung-Hee permitting the involuntary sterilization of mentally ill or mentally retarded South Koreans was repealed only in 1997.^[8] Biohistorian15 (talk) 12:31, 20 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Edit summary: Sorry, apparently there already is a corresponding section. Somebody may extract the few pertinent sources from this section and supplement it appropriately; as of now, this isn't in wikivoice anyways. (cf. "retarded"...) Biohistorian15 (talk) 12:33, 20 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
