Abstract:
Discusses the theory of "racial hygiene", which was advocated in Europe after the First World War in various scientific and political circles. Traces the career and views of Eugen Fischer, the director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institut für Anthropologie, menschliche Erblehre und Eugenik in Berlin up to 1942. Discusses the development of racial theory in Germany before 1933 and the application of this "science" after 1933, as part of Nazi state policy, against Jews and other peoples.
