As a testament to the popularity of the movement, mid-twentieth century British eugenics is contextualized within a remarkably diverse selection of discourses including secular and Anglican interpretations of modernism, poverty, population, gender equality, pacifism and racism. This begins to address the scholastic gap on Christian eugenics while highlighting the perseverance of eugenic racism after World War Two.Great BritainHistoryReligionHistoryScienceHistoryHistory, ModernHistory of Britain and IrelandHistory of ReligionHistory of ScienceModern HistoryGreat BritainHistory.ReligionHistory.ScienceHistory.History, Modern.History of Britain and Ireland.History of Religion.History of Science.Modern History.261.8348Merricks Patrick Tauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut969694BOOK9910254764303321Religion and Racial Progress in Twentieth-Century Britain2203645UNINA
