"Racist views?"[edit]

"However, Davenport's racist views were not supported by all geneticists at Cold Spring Harbor"

What does this mean in this context? What were his "racist" views? This piece could use clarification. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.23.92.237 (talk) 18:23, 21 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Removed text[edit]

Based on the cited source (Roll-Hansen)[1] I removed the text about Sweden. It was Roll-Hansen's (among others) reasarch that was the basis for the journalistic creation of this story. As the 2017 article by Roll-Hansen makes clear, he completely disavows this story and when there is a conflict between the researcher and a journalists use of his material, the journalistic version can't be given any value as a source. The removed text has no reliable source.

The first inclusive foreign-language overview of the history of eugenics and sterilization in Scandinavia was Eugenics and the Welfare state. (Broberg and Roll-Hansen 1995) In the autumn of 1997, this sort of information gave rise to a sensational story in mass media around the globe about a eugenic sterilization program in the Scandinavian welfare states comparable in extent and brutality to that of Hitler's Germany. It started with an article by the historian of ideas and cultural journalist Maciej Zaremba in the Swedish national daily newspaper Dagens Nyheter on August 20,1997.(47)[2]
