CASTILLEJO CUELLAR, Alejandro. RACE, EUGENICS, AND EXCLUSION IN GERMANY DURING THE 1920'S. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2007, n.26, pp.126-137. ISSN 0123-885X.

In 1927, under the umbrella of the Kaiser Wilhelm Gesellschaft, the institution responsible for directing Germany's research policies, the Kaiser Wilhelm Institut für Anthropologie, Menschliche, Erblehre und Eugenic (Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Anthropology, Human Heredity and Eugenics) was founded. The institution represented the apex of the German eugenics movement that had developed in the previous decades, and the birth of one of the intellectual centers where the Reich's ideology of social engineering was founded. This article discusses some of the historic elements that linked racial ideology, the bedrock of Nazi policy of extermination, and the social sciences during the Weimar period.

Palavras-chave : Weimar Republic; racial policies; eugenics; Nazism; Kaiser Wilhelm Institute.
