Eugenics in the Baltics -- part 2. Eugenics in the Baltic Sea Region. 330 $aThe history of eugenics in the Baltic States is largely unknown. The book compares for the first time the eugenic projects of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania and the related disciplines of racial anthropology and psychiatry, and situates them within the wider European context. Strong ethno-nationalism defined the nation as a biological group, which was fostered by authoritarian regimes established in Lithuania in 1926, and in Estonia and Latvia in 1934. The eugenics projects were designed to establish a nation in biological terms. Their aims were to render the nation ethnically, genetically and racially homogeneous. The main agenda was a non-democratic state that defined its population in biological terms. Eugenic policies were to regenerate the nation and to reconstruct it as a ?pure? and ?original? race, Such schemes for national regeneration contained strong elements of secular religion. 410 0$aOn the boundary of two worlds ;$v35. 606 $aEugenics$zBaltic States 607 $aEstonia$xPolitics and government$y1918-1940 607 $aLatvia$xPolitics and government$y1918-1940 607 $aLithuania$xPolitics and government$y1918-1940 615 0$aEugenics 676 $a362.109496 701 $aFelder$b Bjo?rn M$01594212 701 $aWeindling$b Paul J$0262318 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816363203321 996 $aBaltic eugenics$93914688 997 $aUNINA
