摘要

摘要本文解释了战时荷兰优生论述中对遗传退化的担忧与对绝育等生殖干预的反对并存的现象。基于对教科书、期刊出版物和印刷演讲的分析，我将说明优生主义者是如何将其研究领域定位为治疗医学和卫生改革的重要补充，从而将自己纳入公共卫生领域的。荷兰优生主义者将对遗传决定论的批判与拉马克遗传学观点相结合，使这种共生关系在概念上变得合理。本文解释了这一概念组合如何使荷兰优生论者宣称，适当的（优生）教育与健康的环境相结合，将激励个人采取对社会负责的行为，并克制生育。因此，本文有助于将优生学作为一种跨国现象进行比较分析的史学趋势。

Sown Without Care: Dutch Eugenicists and their Call for Optimising Developmental Conditions, 1919–1939

Summary This paper explains the coexistence of concerns about hereditary degeneration and opposition to reproductive intervention such as sterilisation in Dutch eugenic discourse during the interwar years. Based on an analysis of textbooks, periodical publications and printed lectures, I will show how eugenicists positioned themselves within the domain of public health by framing their domain of inquiry as a pivotal addition to curative medicine and sanitary reform. Dutch eugenicists rendered this symbiotic relationship conceptually plausible by combining criticism of genetic determinism and Lamarckian viewpoints on heredity. This paper explains how this conceptual constellation enabled Dutch eugenicists to claim that the combination of proper (eugenic) education and a healthy environment would stimulate individuals to behave socially responsibly and restrain from reproducing. By doing so, this essay contributes to the historiographical trend to comparatively analyse eugenics as a transnational phenomenon.
