Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Decade of Progress in Eugenics: Scientific Papers of the Third International Congress of Eugenics, Held at American Museum of Natural History, New York, August 21-23, 1932 Every nation, race and family-stock must set up its own standards of hereditary constitution in physical, physiological and spiritual qualities. The elements of such ideals do and should vary greatly, for specialization in national purpose and family talent is essential and must be developed and conserved. It is thus that the fundamental elements for eugenics are applicable to all nations, and it is therefore necessary, for the sound advance Of eugenics both in theory and application, to develop a strong international organization. The following summary, here printed as a matter Of historic record, shows how such a world-wide organization has been built up.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Third International Congress of Eugenics, held at New York's American Museum of Natural History in August 1932, was the single largest gathering of eugenicists--academics, researchers, medical specialists, and politicians--ever to have convened. A total of sixty-nine papers were presented at the two day conference, covering topics as widespread as birth selection versus birth control; immigration control; eugenics and education; heredity and environment; the dysgenic effects of war; heredity and disease; and, remarkable for the time, an advanced study of the science of genetics and inheritance. Among the many fascinating and ground-breaking specific studies were: - The Unification of the Anthropological Type of Italians and Its Eugenical Effects, presented by Dr. Marcello Boldrini, Professor of Statistics, Catholic University, Milan, Italy. - Blood Groups in Relation to Race in the Dutch East Indies, presented by Dr. H. J. T. Bijlmer, Ambon, Dutch East Indies. - The Handwriting of Introverts and Extraverts, presented by Dr. June E. Downey, University of Wyoming. - Racial Distribution and Its Causes, presented by Dr. Wilhelm Pessler, Hannover, Germany. - Harmonic Types among Western European Crania, presented by Ruth S. Wallis, Hamline University, St. Paul, Minnesota. - Virginia's Effort to Preserve Racial Integrity, presented by Dr. W. A. Plecker, Bureau of Vital Statistics, Richmond, Virginia. - The American People of Polish Origin in Texas, presented by Dr. Boleslaw Rosinski, Institute of Anthropology and Ethnology, Lwow, Poland. - The Effect of Migration on the Natural Increase of the Negro, presented by Dr. S. J. Holmes, University of California, Berkeley, California. - Heredity and Environment--Their Relative Roles in the Development of East Tennessee Mountain Children, presented by Lester R. Wheeler, State Teacher's College, Johnson City, Tennessee. - Selective Sterilization for Race Culture, presented by Dr. Theodore Russell Robie, Essex County Mental Hygiene Clinic, Cedar Grove, N. J. - Health Declaration before Marriage. Dr. Jon Alfred Mjøen, Oslo, Norway. The papers were first issued in book form two years after the conference. This brand new edition contains all sixty-nine papers, the appendices, and is fully indexed. It is has been completely reset, hand-edited, and proofed. It makes up the most complete record of this highly instructive period when medical science was actually dedicated to improving the lot of mankind through the prevention of inheritable afflictions, and race-betterment for all. It can also serve as a valuable starting point for a revived international eugenics movement should the politically-correct stranglehold on western science be broken once again.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1939, Vogue magazine invited commercial designer Raymond Loewy and eight of his contemporaries—including Walter Dorwin Teague, Egmont Arens, and Henry Dreyfuss—to design a dress for the "Woman of the Future" as part of its special issue promoting the New York World's Fair and its theme, "The World of Tomorrow." While focusing primarily on her clothing and accessories, many commented as well on the future woman's physique, predicting that her body and mind would be perfected through the implementation of eugenics. Industrial designers' fascination with eugenics—especially that of Norman Bel Geddes—began during the previous decade, and its principles permeated their theories of the modern design style known as "streamlining." In Eugenic Design, Christina Cogdell charts new territory in the history of industrial design, popular science, and American culture in the 1930s by uncovering the links between streamline design and eugenics, the pseudoscientific belief that the best human traits could—and should—be cultivated through selective breeding. Streamline designers approached products the same way eugenicists approached bodies. Both considered themselves to be reformers advancing evolutionary progress through increased efficiency, hygiene and the creation of a utopian "ideal type." Cogdell reconsiders the popular streamline style in U.S. industrial design and proposes that in theory, rhetoric, and context the style served as a material embodiment of eugenic ideology. With careful analysis and abundant illustrations, Eugenic Design is an ambitious reinterpretation of one of America's most significant and popular design forms, ultimately grappling with the question of how ideology influences design.
Download or read book Murder at the Sleepy Lagoon written by Eduardo Obregón Pagán and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2004-07-21 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notorious 1942 "Sleepy Lagoon" murder trial in Los Angeles concluded with the conviction of seventeen young Mexican American men for the alleged gang slaying of fellow youth Jose Diaz. Just five months later, the so-called Zoot Suit Riot erupted, as white soldiers in the city attacked minority youths and burned their distinctive zoot suits. Eduardo Obregon Pagan here provides the first comprehensive social history of both the trial and the riot and argues that they resulted from a volatile mix of racial and social tensions that had long been simmering. In reconstructing the lives of the murder victim and those accused of the crime, Pagan contends that neither the convictions (which were based on little hard evidence) nor the ensuing riot arose simply from anti-Mexican sentiment. He demonstrates instead that a variety of pre-existing stresses, including demographic pressures, anxiety about nascent youth culture, and the war effort all contributed to the social tension and the eruption of violence. Moreover, he recovers a multidimensional picture of Los Angeles during World War II that incorporates the complex intersections of music, fashion, violence, race relations, and neighborhood activism. Drawing upon overlooked evidence, Pagan concludes by reconstructing the murder scene and proposes a compelling theory about what really happened the night of the murder.
