▼ No abstract. The following taken from introduction: From approximately 1900 social workers, doctors, biologists and legislators throughout the Western world began in increasing numbers to direct their attention to eugenics, an applied 'science' which aimed at improving the genetic potentialities of the human species. As the new creed gained respect and as individuals, many of them in the front-line of the health and social services, sought an explanation for society's ills and a means of curing them, eugenic societies sprung up in many countries, assuming a different character wherever they took root. This thesis is a history of eugenics in New Zealand and it traces the development of eugenic thought from the early years of the twentieth century through to the 1930s when the subject experienced a brief revival of interest. By this time, however, eugenics had been deserted by the scientific establishment, who now realized that much of earlier eugenics propaganda was little more than unsubstantiated prejudice, and the creed was soon to be irreparably discredited by the demonstration of perverted eugenics in Nazi Germany. In tracing the history of eugenics in New Zealand attention is directed to the work of local writers on eugenics, to the role of politicians and to the activities of the New Zealand Eugenics Education Society. The Society was formed in Dunedin in 1910, three years after its parent body had been established in London, but despite the formation of other branches in Wellington, Christchurch and Timaru, the local Society persisted for less than four years. Interest in eugenics, at least in certain sectors of the population, remained high, however, and its role in a variety of issues which arose during the 1920s is examined. This agitation culminated in the 1924 Committee of Inquiry into Mental Defectives and Sexual Offenders and, four years later, the Mental Defectives Amendment Bill. In discussing the revival of interest in eugenics during the 1930s a case study of discussion on the subject in the Women's Division of the New Zealand Farmers' Union offers an insight into the mechanics of agitation and the issues raised by the topic

▼ There has long been a connection between the concept of utopia as a perfect society and the desire for perfect humans to live in this society. A form of selective breeding takes place in many fictional utopias from Plato’s Republic onwards, but it is only with the naming and promotion of eugenics by Francis Galton in the late nineteenth century that eugenics becomes a consistent and important component of utopian fiction. In my introduction I argue that behind the desire for eugenic fitness within utopias resides a sense that human nature needs improving. Darwin’s Origin of Species (1859) prompted fears of degeneration, and eugenics was seen as a means of restoring purpose and control. Chapter Two examines the impact of Darwin’s ideas on the late nineteenth-century utopia through contrasting the evolutionary fears of Samuel Butler’s Erewhon (1872) with Edward Bellamy’s more positive view of the potential of evolution in Looking Backward (1888). Chapter Three uses examples from three late-nineteenth-century feminist utopias to highlight the aspirations within these societies to use science to transform women’s social position and transcend the biological determinism of their reproductive role. Chapter Four focuses on the social theory and utopian fiction of Charlotte Perkins Gilman to illustrate how eugenics becomes part of her vision of progress for women and the human race as a whole. Chapter Five turns to dystopian fiction from H.G. Wells, Aldous Huxley, Yevgeny Zamyatin, Charlotte Haldane and Katherine Burdekin to examine how eugenic ideas retained an element of idealism even in the context of the dystopias of the first half of the twentieth century. Chapter Six looks at the fate of eugenics in utopian fiction after the Second World War and argues that the resurgence of utopianism in the form of the ecological utopia continue to rely on eugenics, population control and manipulation of human behaviour to succeed. My conclusion argues that eugenics is a utopian idea with enduring appeal despite the disastrous effects of its practical implementation, and that utopian and dystopian fiction offer an important lens through which to understand the hopes and fears represented by the different versions of eugenics and the current debates over genetic enhancements and transhumanism.

▼ During the American Progressive Era, California was the most active state in terms of eugenic sterilization operations. California was also an early adopter of sterilization legislation, as the third American state to institute such laws in 1909. California's laws effectively protected surgeons and other medical practitioners from legal repercussions related to sterilization operations. The state reported around twenty thousand of the surgeries performed in its institutions between 1909 and the 1970s, when sterilization legislation was finally overturned. Proponents of human sterilization by vasectomy or salpingectomy, also known at the time as asexualization, proposed the operations as a solution to issues including overcrowding in state institutions, widespread poor moral hygiene, and a supposed overreliance on state welfare by poor people. From its incorporation in 1928 until its dissolution in 1942, the Pasadena-based Human Betterment Foundation (HBF) encouraged wider application of eugenic sterilization (both compulsory and voluntary) in California and throughout the United States. Ezra Seymour Gosney, a millionaire citrus magnate, created and privately funded the foundation, and hired Paul Popenoe to carry out the HBF's analysis of California's sterilization program and its effects. The HBF presented its study as an objective analysis of California's sterilization program, taking advantage of a large and influential network of organizations in the state with links to eugenics. The true purpose of the HBF, however, was to espouse value judgments about who deserved to reproduce, allowing Gosney and Popenoe to advance their own subjective worldview under the guise of scientific analysis. HBF members and publications employed various methods to portray the foundation as a legitimate authority, such as emphasizing their ties to state institutions, universities, and medical practitioners. An analysis of primary sources, including HBF publications as well as unpublished documents from the E. S. Gosney and Human Betterment Foundation collection in the Caltech archives, shows that the HBF's work was more akin to lobbying or propaganda than detached analysis of the results of California's eugenic sterilization program.

The author presents this studys problematic: can the biotechnological practices for assisted reproduction and genic therapy violate the individuals fundamental rights as well as cause damaging repercussions in the genetics patrimony of the humanity? From this thematic: The juridical content of the concept of strict beneficence in face of the neo-eugenic experience: about the limits among therapeutic and reproductive techniques and eugenic practices applied in the human species the object of this study was developed: eugenics. The theoretical referential comes from the work of the Cathedra of Law and Human Genome from the University of Deusto in Bilbao Spain under the direction of Professor Carlos Casabona consultations to the periodical from the Cathedra The Magazine of Law and Human Genome beyond Galton Lacadena Barbas Soutullo Semprini Frankena Vasquez and S. Rocha. This study is characterized as qualitative bibliographic and it has an exploratory nature. The author has as a general objective : to demonstrate that many of the biotechnological practices currently adopted under the label of techniques of assisted reproduction or of genic therapy then protected by the protective mantle of science present actually a strong neo- eugenic connotation . There is the hypothesis that it is necessary to establish limits between the actions with strict beneficial consequences that emanate from the biomedical practices and the eugenic ones the current juridical content of this concept in face of different types of culture as well as to set out the way its acceptability will be seen by society. This study is organized into six parts including the Introduction and the Conclusions. In Chapter 2 the author writes about the object of the study: eugenics. The proposal is to delineate the historical trajectory of the traditional eugenic ideology analyzing its conceptions and the theoretical foundation that generated it as well as to highlight the thinking of some scholars that defend the movement in favor of the purity of human race especially Francis Galton in Chapter 3 the phenomenon of the dissemination of eugenic practices around the world and its repercussions in Chapter 4 the outbreak and evolution of genetics as a scientific discipline its achievements and consequent unfolding as well as the intensification that has been experienced by the eugenic ideas from the advent of the genomic medicine in Chapter 5 a juridical profile and the content of the concept of strict beneficence that comes from the principialist American bioethical doctrine that was unfolded in the sense of being admitted not only as an obligation nut also as an obligation / right.

▼ This dissertation explores how a transnational movement for women’s reproductive freedom became, by the Cold War era, a state-sponsored effort of population control targeting racially and economically marginalized women. It seeks to explain how an effort to empower women and give them more control over their bodies was organized into programs that effectively disempowered them in order to meet the perceived needs of the state. It does this by following the trajectories of two iconic transnational birth control activists, Margaret Sanger and Ishimoto (Katō) Shizue. As these feminists attempted to attract broad elite support beyond national borders, their birth control cause became caught in the imperial struggles between the United States and Japan. The narrative starts from the aftermath of World War I, when feminists and socialists in both Japan and the United States saw birth control as a key to empower working-class women exploited under capitalism and imperialism. During the interwar decades, birth control activists found their goals and purposes more closely aligned with liberal internationalists, advocating birth control as an essential tool to maintain world peace by taming the outward thrust of “aggressive” and “fertile” races such as the Japanese. By the Cold War period, scholars and policymakers in both countries embraced birth control as an essential prerequisite for modernity and a political tool to fight population explosion and communist invasion in Asia. Feminist notions of control over women’s own reproductive decisions were thus replaced by political schemes to strengthen the “national body” and to maintain “international peace” under U.S. hegemony. My work analyzes how foreign politics not only influenced “population control” programs in a non-Western country, but also helped shape birth control politics in America. Japan’s overpopulation problem, often described as a threat to a peaceful world order, helped make the discussion on reproductive control acceptable, even “respectable,” among professionals and elite leaders in the United States. As the birth control cause grew to an international scale, however, it became increasingly removed from the needs and rights of average women.

▼ This dissertation examines the influence of Protestant missionaries in Africa on the development of Protestant poor relief policies in Germany during the period of 1850-1933. Specifically, it seeks to understand better how and why Protestants embraced eugenics during the early twentieth century. To this end it uses the famous Bethel institutions in Bielefeld as a case study. With both a foreign and domestic mission, Bethel provides the unique opportunity to study the interaction between the two in a single context. In Globalization and the Nation in Imperial Germany, Sebastian Conrad suggests that the Bethel missionaries were responsible for pushing the adoption of eugenic policies in Germany upon returning to Bielefeld after 1918. While Conrad's assertion that the foreign mission had an extensive influence on the development of Protestant social welfare policies, he misstates the role of the missionaries. Rather than advocating for the adoption of eugenic policies the Bethel missionaries formed the core pocket of opposition to eugenic ideas after 1918. Prior to WWI Friedrich von Bodelschwingh, a nationalist, conservative pastor and director of the famous Bethel institutions in Bielefeld developed a philosophy of poor relief that stressed a strong work ethic, notions of responsibility, the importance of familial structures, and a mixture of Protestantism and German nationalism. His philosophy drew heavily on the pioneering work of Johann Wichern, the founder of the Inner Mission and the methods used by Protestant missionaries to western Africa during the early nineteenth century. His efforts were a response to the fears of German Protestants in the wake of the failed revolutions of 1848. They feared the potential impact of unemployed migrant workers on Germany's social and political stability. Living on the margins of society, Protestant reformers worried that they would become interested in radical ideologies like Communism and thus hostile to the church and the conservative monarchy. The foreign mission was central to the formation and development of Bodelschwingh's philosophy. Even before arriving at Bethel in 1872, he had made a practical attempt to articulate his ideas as a missionary in Paris among working class Germans. At Bethel Bodelschwingh took his ideas further by founding an actual worker colony. The colony, located outside the city and using a highly regimented lifestyle, stressed the same philosophy he had articulated in Paris. Only after the performance of physical labor would one receive assistance. These colonies, because of their perceived potential to transform marginalized, disaffected individuals into loyal and productive members of society, were wildly popular with Protestant reformers and the Monarchy and therefore received substantial support from the state and gradually spread across the country. Given Bodelschwingh's success with the Inner Mission, colonial authorities, hoping he could use the same philosophy in Africa to transform Africans into loyal and productive colonial subjects,…

M.A. University of Hawaii at Manoa 2014.

Moʻokūʻauhau (genealogical succession, pedigree)1 is a critical component to Kanaka ʻŌiwi2 understanding of kuleana, defined by Young as "a received sense of ancestrally-based responsibility", and is a most important part of the fabric of Hawaiian national consciousness3. A eugenics effort in US-occupied Territorial Hawaiʻi would serve to assist in the erosion of an ʻŌiwi national identity and in the construction of a Hawaiian-American racial and national identity specifically by framing ʻŌiwi ancestry as degenerate and positioning good American citizenship as that which would save ʻŌiwi from extinction. Hawaiian Kingdom subjects who participated in the armed seizure of authority from the constitutional sovereign of the Hawaiian Kingdom in 1893 were of American and European ancestry and held a U.S. American national allegiance. A political and ethnic minority, this small group of men became the civilian arm of the U.S. occupation of Hawaiʻi4, maintaining oligarchic governance over Hawaiʻi throughout the next six decades. The political domination of the new regime did not go unchallenged however as immediately following the armed dethronement of Liliʻuokalani in 1893, an incredible grassroots organizing effort fueled by Aloha ʻĀina (love for land and country)5, mobilized to defend the political independence of the Hawaiian Kingdom from the United States. A realignment of ʻŌiwi national identity centered around moʻokūʻauhau in the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi to one based on race and racial order with the United States, would prove critical to the pacification of this staunch opposition to U.S. American control. Positioning ʻŌiwi moʻokūʻauhau, a lifeline to nationalism, as degenerate would assist with such a realignment. Influenced by the American eugenics movement, the Hawaiʻi arm took century-old ideas of ʻŌiwi moral and physical decay6 and transformed it from a religious ideology to one couched in science and rationality. However, as with the advancement of such notions by missionaries in Hawaiʻi in the nineteenth century, the twentieth century reproduction of these notions also served to position the haole as superior, more civilized and the natural keeper of power over Kanaka ʻŌiwi and their lands.

▼ My dissertation “The Making of Mañana-Land” describes the creation of enclaves of agribusiness, tourism and militarism across the American Mediterranean, the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean, expanding into the Pacific with the Panama Canal. Building on labor histories of the banana trade, most notably by Jason Colby, as well as histories of tropical tourism, most notably Catherine Cocks, it examines workers and tourists side-by-side, describing the racialization of labor and leisure. Imagined as a timeless mañana-land, the American Mediterranean was the crucible of a radical modernity that prefigured the future of globalized corporate capitalism. The U.S. imperial state and the private empire of United Fruit, in cooperation with modernizing elites in Latin America and the U.S. South, expanded with public health campaigns to eradicate yellow fever, contain hookworm and malaria, and reporting hurricanes. Agribusiness corporations developed a rationalized approach to transportation, communication and administration. White managerial classes relied on the labor, skills and knowledge of non-white immigrant workers, including Black Jamaicans who brought banana planting to Central America, and Japanese and Mexicans in the citrus groves of Southern California. Vertical integration maximized corporate profits while slashing costs, making bananas and oranges cheap consumer staples and symbols of the abundance of capitalism, as trains and steamships that transported these fruits also carried growing numbers of wealthy white U.S. tourists. Transnational labor migrations both created and undermined racial segregation. Afro-American migration, West Indian immigration and Mexican immigration altered the racial and cultural makeup of the U.S., creating Jazz Age subcultures and radicalized racial nationalisms. Racism against West Indians shaped nationalism in the Spanish Caribbean, opposing the corporate imperialism of United Fruit. Eugenics movements across the American Mediterranean claimed the sanitary legacy of public health campaigns against tropical diseases, advocating restrictions on non-white immigration, as well as more extreme eugenic measures, such as sterilization. By describing how capitalist globalization provoked backlashes against needed but unwanted immigrants, I will challenge ideas of globalization as a weakening the state, while drawing parallels with the contemporary rise of populist nationalism.

A presente Tese de Doutorado tem como propósito analisar algumas das ideias formuladas no âmbito do discurso racialista e do discurso eugenista produzidos no Brasil durante o período que se estende entre 1870 e 1940. A investigação, embora não exclusivamente, se coloca na trilha das teorizações do filósofo francês Michel Foucault. A genealogia foucaultiana é tomada como perspectiva de análise histórica para sustentar a ideia de que as teorias racialistas e eugenistas por aqui produzidas foram instituídas e instituíram efeitos relativos ao funcionamento do que Foucault chamou de biopoder: poder que tem por objeto a vida do homem. Procura-se problematizar, em primeiro lugar, a emergência do discurso eugenista produzido no Brasil durante as primeiras décadas do século XX, tendo em vista seus vínculos genealógicos com as teorias raciais produzidas nas últimas décadas do século XIX; em segundo lugar, a forma como esse discurso científico formulado pelos teóricos eugenistas locais procurou definir a educação como elemento essencial para o sucesso de seu projeto de melhoramento racial da população brasileira.

This doctoral dissertation aims to analyze some ideas formulated in the light of racialist and eugenicist discourse which was produced in Brazil during the period extending from 1870 to 1940. The investigation, though not solely, is based on the theories proposed by the French philosopher Michel Foucault. Foucault's genealogy is taken as the historical analytical perspective to support the claim that the racialist theories and the eugenicist theories, produced here, were determined and determined effects on the operation of what Foucault called biopower, namely, a kind of power which has man's life as its object. The present work aims to discuss, first, the emergence of eugenicist discourse produced in Brazil during the first decades of the twentieth century in the light of their connections with racial theories produced in the last decades of the nineteenth century; secondly, how this scientific discourse formulated by local eugenicist theoreticians tried to define education as a crucial element for the success of the racial improvement project which was conceived for the Brazilian population.

▼ This dissertation examines a century of biological and social scientific interest in four communities of presumed white, Indian, and African-American ancestry. Prior to the 1970s the Monacan Indians of Virginia, the Piscataway Indians of Maryland, the Ramapough Indians of New Jersey, and the Nanticoke Indians of Delaware lacked formal recognition and other markers of identity commonly associated with federally recognized tribes, and yet they vehemently defended their identity claims as Native Americans. Thus, this dissertation explores how their avowal of Native American identity posed a problem for scientists whose theories depended upon viewing them as “triracial isolates,” geographically isolated maroon communities wishing to use the “Native” category as an means of escaping the stigma of blackness. The dissertation begins in the 1870s as ethnologists turned their attention to investigating surviving Indian communities in the eastern United States. Believing that the nation’s Native American population was on the brink of extinction—through displacement and disease but more commonly as the result of racial mixture and assimilation—scientists turned to those Indian-descended peoples of both black and white admixture in order to understand how racial mixture influenced the maintenance of aboriginal culture. The dissertation then follows these communities across the next century as eugenicists, sociologists, and geneticists looked to triracial peoples in order to advance scientific theories about race and explores the impact of these investigations on the social and political organization of mixed-race native communities. And because these communities were not passive subjects of scientific scrutiny this study also explores how they used their own scientific experts to defend their racial claims. As such, this study reveals that the production of racial meanings involved moments of synergy as well as contestation between scientists and their subjects. The dissertation ends in the 1970s as the Monacans, Piscataway, Nanticoke, and Ramapough sought state and federal acknowledgement as Indian tribes. In examining the shifting frames through which anthropologists, sociologists, and geneticists justified their study of “red-white-black” groups reveals the extent to which scientific knowledge has been inextricably linked to the conviction that race is a measurable and determinable phenomenon.

▼

Over the course of the 1980s and the 1990s, West Germany and then Germany developed the most restrictive law in the advanced industrialized world to regulate reproductive and genetic technologies. Under the Embryo Protection Act of 1990. the government criminalized egg and embryo donations, sex selection, alterations to the human germ line, and any use of reproductive technologies leading to "divided motherhood." In the early 2000s, after intense public controversy, the German parliament decided to maintain a ban on preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD). My dissertation asks why Germans were so concerned about these technologies. To the extent that this question has been posed, scholars have mainly attributed German anxieties to the specter of the Nazi past. But although the Nazi past certainly mattered, this dissertation argues that Germans worried as much if not more about the pathologies of liberalism, especially the development of neoliberalism from the 1970s onward. Critiques of reproduction were therefore a locus for broad political and economic critiques in late-twentieth-century Germany. This dissertation explicates those critiques by tracing the changing meanings of two concepts in particular, human dignity and eugenics. These concepts structured debates on reproduction but were also constituted by them. Analyzing the concepts of human dignity and eugenics shows that in the 1980s German critics feared the technologization of reproduction, through which scientists and doctors would pursue a perfectionist eugenics. In so doing, such actors would supersede God's role in creation and destroy the Christian subject, in particular one's ability to grow out of imperfection toward a closer union with God. By the end of the century, critics grew suspicious of individual decisionmaking. They came to fear the marketization of reproduction - namely that the logic of the market dictated the everyday reproductive decisionmaking of individual parents. Critics now reconceptualized both dignity and eugenics. They invoked dignity in a Kantian more than Christian register, and for the first time they spoke of eugenics as inherently unacceptable, whether orchestrated from above or arising from individual choices below.

▼

In the early twentieth century, interest in eugenics swept the world. Seen as a scientific solution to social ills of the day like prostitution, venereal disease and the supposed rise in “feeble-mindedness,” its principles were based on the notion that humanity could be improved through selective breeding, as was already being done with plants and animals. Many jurisdictions, including thirty American states as well as Alberta and British Columbia in Canada, implemented legislation which required certain “unfit” individuals to undergo reproductive sterilization. Others passed legislation requiring pre-marital certificates of medical “fitness.” Surprisingly, Ontario never followed suit. This has led to the assumption that “not too much” of a eugenic nature happened in that province. However, by investigating the relationship between eugenics and law using primary sources relatively unknown to historians of medicine, science and technology, I have found evidence of considerable eugenic activity in Ontario. This dissertation focusses on the period from 1910 to 1938 and three specific legal processes. First, I examine the story of Dr. Forbes Godfrey, MPP, who, between 1910 and 1921, introduced eight private members’ bills in the legislature, four to implement sterilization and four to implement marriage restrictions. All eight failed to pass. Second is the story of three Royal Commissions, established in 1917, 1929, 1938, which all recommended eugenic solutions to the problems they were set up to consider. Once again, none of their proposed eugenic solutions were adopted. Third is the story of industrialist A. R. Kaufman and the Parents’ Information Bureau he incorporated to promote birth control and sterilization. This work led to a 1936 criminal prosecution now known as the Eastview Trial in which the judge determined, partly because of an argument based explicitly on eugenic principles, that distributing birth control information and devices served the “public good.”

▼ This dissertation uses eugenics as a framework for interpreting liberal Protestantism in the United States, around the turn of the twentieth century, as a cultural project that relied on an assumption of racial privilege. I demonstrate that key commitments of the liberal Protestant movement — its embrace of scientific knowledge as a way of understanding both religious tradition and the natural world, its commitment to engaging the social problems of industrial society, and its soteriology of nurture — performed a narrative of Anglo-Saxon racial superiority. When liberal Protestants acted out this racial narrative, they undermined their own vision for a just, healthy, and rational social order. Members and leaders of the denominations in which theological liberalism found the strongest footing — Episcopalians, Presbyterians, Unitarians, Congregationalists, and to a lesser extent Methodists, particularly in the cities and towns of the Northeast and upper Midwest — embraced the Social Gospel while cultivating a religio-racial identity as the spiritual and literal descendants of the nation’s English settlers and founders. I show that they promulgated the notion of America as the continent where, as the descendants of those early English settlers, they were divinely tasked with reaching their full racial potential, and that they weighed this putative divine responsibility in their reproductive choices. I describe the eugenic discipline they imposed on the poor in order to preserve what they considered the distinctive character of their own race, as well as their collective power in national life. I further show how eugenics shaped advice they were given about their own sexuality and reproduction. Finally, however, as I demonstrate in my final chapter, while liberal Protestants took eugenics seriously, they did not respond to eugenic discourse in the way its proponents hoped: by having a large number of children. Overwhelmingly, they had small families. This was not because they rejected the principles of eugenics, but rather because having a small number of children was a reliable way of helping those children maintain their racial privilege. Ironically, they rejected a form of racial solidarity, not in favor of any universal sense of justice, but rather in favor of individual advantage.
