Редактирование: Eugenics (раздел)

{{languages|Евгеника}}
'''Eugenics''' refers to a variety of beliefs and practices seeking to improve the genetic quality of a human population.

Heavily criticized, its advocacy is typically based on [[junk science]] that overstates the role of hereditary traits in personal development and overlooks environmental and social factors, frequently to excuse classism and [[scientific racism]].

Many precursors to the modern [[transhumanism|transhumanist]] movement come from eugenics, including the origin of the word "transhumanism" itself.  A common [[criticism of transhumanism]] is the observation that many advocated positions, whether directed by authorities or by the combined effect of prejudice on individual choices, may constitute <i>de facto</i> eugenics.
