From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Logo from the Second International Eugenics Conference, 1921, depicting eugenics as a tree which unites a variety of different fields.[1] Eugenics (/juːˈdʒɛnɪks/; from Greek eu, meaning good/well, and -genēs, meaning born) is the belief and practice of improving the genetic quality of the human population.[2][3] It is a social philosophy advocating the improvement of human genetic traits through the promotion of higher reproduction of people with desired traits (positive eugenics), and reduced reproduction of people with less-desired or undesired traits (negative eugenics).[4]
