CARRIZOSA MOOG, Jaime. Reflections on the doctoral thesis Race in Antioquia is unique and is not degenerated. Iatreia [online]. 2013, vol.26, n.4, pp.487-493. ISSN 0121-0793.

In several countries, totalitarianism, fascism and national-socialism had racial topics as core policies. Other countries did not necessarily have a liberal thinking on this specific matter, and also approved discriminatory laws. In Latin America, eugenics had a great impact on public health policies during the first half of the 20^th century, and gave rise to stigmatization of ill persons and of different races. Ninety years after its publication, a doctoral thesis on the race in Antioquia, Colombia, may still have validity.
