Eugenia e Fundação Rockefeller no Brasil : a saude como instrumento de regeneração nacional / Eugenics and Rockefeller Foudation in Brazil : the health as instrument of national regeneration

Orientadores: Maria Conceição da Costa, Lina Rodrigues de Faria / Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de Geociencias / Made available in DSpace on 2018-08-09T11:26:29Z (GMT).

Da conceituação do termo pelo inglês Francis Galton no século XVIII, até o advento do nazismo, sua expressão mais radical, o movimento possuiu características distintas. Neste trabalho, buscamos observar uma outra faceta do movimento mundial: a peculiaridade da eugenia brasileira ao defender a regeneração de um povo, não condenado pelo clima ou pela raça, mas doente. Nesse contexto destacamos um novo elemento: a presença da Fundação Rockefeller. Nosso argumento baseia-se no fato de que nas duas primeiras décadas do século XX, a eugenia, em terras brasileiras, era sinônimo de saneamento e higiene. A Fundação Rockefeller, por sua vez, teve atuação marcante no campo da saúde pública, especialmente naquilo que se relacionava ao saneamento e ao combate às doenças que assolavam tanto as áreas urbanas como as rurais. A chegada da fundação norte-americana ao Brasil foi marcada pela negociação, já que o país possuía uma tradição médica que se consolidava. Ao mesmo tempo, podemos defender que a Fundação foi também ¿capturada¿ pela eugenia brasileira, que nesse período se confundia com saúde pública. Palavras-chave: Eugenia, Fundação Rockefeller, Saúde Pública / Abstract: Eugenics: heterogeneous and complex: since the conception of the term with Francis Galton in the 18th century, until the advent of the nazism, its more radical expression, the movement presented different characteristics. In this work, we try to observe another side of the worldwide movement: the peculiarity of the Brazilian eugenics by defending the regeneration of a nation, that was not condemned by the climate or the race, but was sick. In this context we take a new element: the presence of the Rockefeller Foundation. Our argument is based on the fact that in the two first decades of the 20th century, eugenics in Brazil meant sanitation and hygiene. The Rockefeller Foundation was a leader in the field of public health, specially in things related to sanitation and in fighting against diseases that were devastating the urban as much as the rural areas. The coming of the north american Foundation to Brazil was marked by negotiation, since the country had a medical tradition that was increasing by that time. At the same time we claim the idea that the Foundation was also "captured" by the Brazilian eugenics that in this period was confounded with public health. Key-words: Eugenics, Rockefeller Foundation, Public Health / Mestrado / Mestre em Política Científica e Tecnológica

Pravicový extremismus a jeho důsledky v rovině právní za nacismu a dnes. / Right-wing extremism and its legal consequences under Nazism and today

Šimonek, Patrik January 2021 (has links)
The diploma thesis deals with the influence of right-wing extremism on the legal order and compares the consequences that activities of right-wing extremists had and have on the law. The basic principles of right-wing extremism, as well as the basic theses on which right-wing extremist ideologies are based, are described in the diploma thesis. The diploma thesis "Right- wing extremism and its legal consequences under Nazism and today" is divided into ten chapters and a conclusion and discusses the manifestations of tribal nationalism in the legal order of Nazi Germany and describes the implementation of Nazi legislation in the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. The attention is also paid to the development of national particularism, its ideas and to the idea of national exceptionality. However, the idea of national exceptionality puts the unexceptional "others" on the opposite pole of the same axis and subsequently leads to their discrimination and persecution. The law then becomes the perfect tool to discriminate against and persecute these "others". Main attention is thus paid to racial legislation of the Nazi Germany, which were based on conclusions of eugenics "scientists" of the time. The diploma thesis therefore in detail discusses the Nuremberg Laws, as well as other subsequent by-laws,...

Propagating Perfection: Eugenic Sterilization at the Utah State Training School, 1935 - 1974

Rust, Jennifer 01 May 2017 (has links)
Compulsory sterilization as a tool of eugenics occurred in the United States from before the U.S. Supreme Court upheld its’ constitutionality in 1927 until the early 1970s. Initial justification for removing a person’s ability to procreate was rooted in hereditarian assertions that disability was transmitted from parent to offspring, and incorporated an economic argument that individuals with disabilities placed a financial burden on the state for care. Due to scientific deconstruction of the hereditarian argument, rationalization for sterilization evolved into an anxiety over the perceived inability of the disabled to parent. The state of Utah sterilized 738 individuals with intellectual disabilities from 1935 to 1974. This paper explores how Utah was similar to other states in terms of implementing compulsory sterilization through the establishment of the Utah State Training School and the philosophy of its leadership team.

Compulsory Death: A Historiographic Study of the Eugenics and Euthanasia Movements in Nazi Germany.

Hawkins, Michael Creed 08 May 2010 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis is a historiographical study of the eugenics and euthanasia programs of Nazi Germany. It traces there development from the end of World War One to the fall of Hitler's Third Reich. There are three stages in this study. First, I examine eugenics after World War One and the effect the era had on society. Then I study the Nazi transition from eugenics measures to "euthanasia", and last I analyze the transferring of the killing methods from the "euthanasia" centers to the concentration camps. The questions of how did the idea for eugenics develop in Germany society, what role did World War One play in its development, why did the Nazis move from eugenics to "euthanasia", was the children's euthanasia program and Aktion T-4 the same or different programs, did doctors willingly participate in the programs, was there a resistance to "euthanasia", and what role did the T-4 program play in the "Final Solution" are examined. This study uses a wide range of secondary sources. It examines the authors of those sources arguments and if their work plays a role in out better understanding of the event. Many of these authors are the leading scholars in their field. This study concludes that these sources have lead to our better understand the Holocaust, and the argument as to wither or not the mass murder of European Jewry was a well planned event or a trial and error process that lead to mass murder.

History, Ideology, and Evolution of Criminal Profiling

Ramesh, Gayatri M 01 January 2021 (has links)
Criminal profiling is the art of using evidence and crime scenes to deduce who the criminal is and where the criminals might be going next. In addition, criminal profiling is also used to link cases together with like victims. While its usage in law enforcement is relatively new, forms of the art have been around for decades. This thesis researches the history, ideology, and evolution of criminal profiling from the early 1870s to its current state. Cesare Lombroso and his research founded criminal profiling by examining how criminals and their minds vary from law-abiding citizens. Following Lombroso, various forms of research were conducted to further criminal profiling into the much more tangible craft that it is today. Various researchers looked into differing aspects of criminal profiling and produced research that has revolutionized the process. In its earliest stages, biological factors were the primary factors considered to explain why criminals behave differently. However, over time, sociological, environmental, and even psychological factors have been shown to play a part in this volatile recipe. While the process of criminal profiling is not perfect, the advancements in our understanding of the human psyche, along with the evolution of technology, have caused criminal profiling to become much more of a refined art today than in years past. Further, there is reason to believe that the future of profiling will continue to evolve and become even more helpful as a tool for law enforcement. Law enforcement has begun to assemble big data, and informaticians have started to link social media posts, criminal confinements, and online purchases to criminally deviant and violent behavior.
