Racism, race hygiene, eugenics, and their histories have for a long
time been studied in terms of individual countries, whether
genocidal ideology in Nazi Germany or scientific racial theories in
the United States. As this study demonstrates, however, eugenic
racial policy and scientific racism alike had a strongly
international dimension. Concepts such as a 'Racial Confederation
of European Peoples' or a 'blonde internationalism' marked the
thinking and the actions of many eugenicists, undergirding
transnational networks that persist even today. Author Stefan Kuhl
provides here a historical foundation for this phenomenon,
contextualizing the international eugenics movement in relation to
National Socialist race policies and showing how intensively
eugenicists worked to disseminate their beliefs throughout the
world.
