Abstract

Has Eugenics resurfaced in America? What impact does the genomic industry have on this resurgence? An archival analysis of the American Eugenics movement yields concern over eugenical undercurrents circulating in America. This thesis classifies eugenics in its various forms, defines its ideological attributes and anticipates its effects on political policy.
