War and Regeneration: The Great War and Eugenics in Eastern Europe [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
How were healthcare practices altered by massive violent deaths and the epidemics that decimated European societies between 1914 and 1918? How did states, professional healthcare personnel, and other caretakers choose to learn from this trauma? How have historians reflected on these complex shifts? The centenary of the Great War presents an opportunity to reconsider the legacies of this event that reshaped Europe from a variety of perspectives, among them the changes brought about in the field of social medicine. Using my own research on the history of eugenics in eastern Europe as a starting point, I will focus on several departures in historical research that have taken place over the past decade in relation to this theme and suggest a few other directions for future research.
