By 1931, twenty-seven states had passed laws permitting sterilization. By 1932, more than 12,000 sterilizations had been performed in the United States, half of them in California. By 1935, the year Carrel’s book was published, Denmark, Germany, Switzerland, Norway, and Sweden condoned enforced sterilization. To those who espoused it, sterilization of the socially unfit was simply a matter of reason and good economics. Source: J. H. Landman, Ph.D., J.D., J.S.D.,
