Definition
Eugenic segregation refers to the practice of segregating individuals in society based on their perceived genetic fitness or inferiority. This concept comes from the eugenics movement, which aimed to improve the genetic quality of the population by promoting reproduction among individuals deemed to have desirable traits and restricting reproduction among those considered to have undesirable traits.
Eugenic segregation has been used in the past to justify discriminatory practices, such as forced sterilization, institutionalization, and marriage restrictions for individuals with disabilities or deemed to be of "inferior" genetic stock. This harmful practice ultimately leads to the violation of human rights and perpetuates social stigmatization and discrimination.
Today, eugenic segregation is universally condemned as unethical and inhumane. It is important to promote equality, inclusivity, and respect for all individuals regardless of their genetic makeup or perceived fitness.
