  • An Analysis of Physician Behaviors During the Holocaust: Modern Day Relevances
    S. M. Miller & S. Gallin . Conatus 4, no. 2 (2019): 265-285 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12681/cjp.21147 An Analysis of Physician Behaviors During the Holocaust: Modern Day Relevances Susan Maria Miller1 and Stacy Gallin2 1Houston Methodist Research Institute, USA E-mail address: [email protected] ORCID ID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5519-3255 2Maimonides Institute for Medicine, Ethics and the Holocaust; Misericordia University, USA E-mail address: [email protected] ORCID ID: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6076-8773 Abstract Even with the passage of time, the misguided motivations of highly educated, physician- participants in the genocide known as the Holocaust remain inexplicable and opaque. Typically, the physician-patient relationship inherent within the practice of medicine, has been rooted in the partnership between individuals. However, under the Third Reich, this covenant between a physician and patient was displaced by a public health agenda that was grounded in the scientific theory of eugenics and which served the needs of a polarized political system that relied on this hypothesis to justify society’s racial hygiene laws. As part of the National Socialist propaganda, Adolf Hitler ominously argued that the cultural decline of Germany after World War I could largely be based on interbreeding and a “resultant drop in the racial level.” This foundational premise defined those who could be ostracized, labeled and persecuted by society, including those who were assimilated. The indoctrination and implementation of this distorted social policy required the early and sustained cooperation and leadership of the medical profession. Because National Socialism promised it could restore Germany’s power, honor and dignity, physicians embraced their special role in the repair of the state.

  • Jay Katz: from Harms to Risks Larry I
    College of William & Mary Law School William & Mary Law School Scholarship Repository Faculty Publications Faculty and Deans 2006 Response - Jay Katz: From Harms to Risks Larry I. Palmer William & Mary Law School Repository Citation Palmer, Larry I., "Response - Jay Katz: From Harms to Risks" (2006). Faculty Publications. 79. https://scholarship.law.wm.edu/facpubs/79 Copyright c 2006 by the authors. This article is brought to you by the William & Mary Law School Scholarship Repository. https://scholarship.law.wm.edu/facpubs Response Jay Katz: From Harms to Risks Larry I. Palmer, LL.B* Jay Katz's towering presence in the scholarship on human experimentation has been a source of personal and professional inspiration. As I noted over thirty years ago in my review essay about his classic work, Experimentation with Human Beings, 1 Jay's scholarship asks tough and penetrating questions about a truth we modern professionals hold to be sacred.2 We have always assumed that growth in scientific knowledge and social progress are linked. Yet as Alex Capron discusses in his paper,3 scientific knowledge has sometimes been produced by means we would not consider socially progressive. Jay's analysis of the history of experimentation with human beings before, during, and after the Nazi era dispels the comforting notion that the Nazi investigators were individuals working outside the moral ethos of modern medicine and science (i.e., that they were merely racists and sadists). Instead, Jay reveals that they were physician-investigators searching aggressively (albeit blindly) for even better ways of making science socially useful and relevant.4 * Endowed Chair in Urban Health Policy, Professor of Family and Geriatric Medicine, and Professor of Health Management and Systems Sciences, University of Louisville.

It is my great joy to welcome you all here and especially to thank Bob Levine and Alex Capron, Bo Burt, David Tolley, and Carol Pollard for putting this program together. You all know Jay Katz's story. He was born in Germany and emigrated to the United States at the age of eighteen. He earned his doctorate at Harvard Medical School, which he followed with a medical internship at Mount Sinai. Next is the part of his resume that has always been the most exciting and mysterious to me: his service as Captain Katz of the United States Air Force.

  • The Medical Manipulation of Reproduction to Implement the Nazi Genocide of Jews*
    B. Chalmers . Conatus 4, no. 2 (2019): 127-147 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12681/cjp.20993 The Medical Manipulation of Reproduction to Implement the Nazi Genocide of Jews* Beverley Chalmers International Perinatal Health Consultant, Canada E-mail address: [email protected] ORCID ID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9345-4284 Abstract Holocaust literature gives exhaustive attention to direct means of exterminating Jews, by using gas chambers, torture, starvation, disease, and intolerable conditions in ghettos and camps, and by the Einsatzgruppen. In some circles, the term “Holocaust” has become the ultimate description of horror or horrific events. The Nazi medical experiments and practices are an example of these. Nazi medical science played a central and crucial role in creating and implementing practices designed to achieve a “Master Race.” Doctors interfered with the most intimate and previously sacrosanct aspects of life in these medical experiments – reproductive function and behavior – in addition to implementing eugenic sterilizations, euthanasia, and extermination programs. Manipulating reproductive life – as a less direct method of achieving the genocide of Jews – has been less acknowledged. The Nazis prevented those regarded as not meeting idealized Nazi racial standards – and particularly Jewish women – from having sex or bearing children through legal, social, psychological and biological means, as well as by murder. In contrast, they promoted reproductive life to achieve the antithesis of genocide – the mass promotion of life – among those deemed sufficiently “Aryan.” Implementing measures to prevent birth is a core feature of the UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Genocide. As with many other aspects of the Holocaust, science and scientists were inveigled into providing legitimacy for Nazi actions.

  • American Journal of International Law
    American Journal of International Law VOLUME 66 1972 Published by The ^Z°UL>^ 11 American Society of International Law The American Society of International Law The American Society of International Law was organized in 1906 "to foster the study of international law and to promote the establishment and mainte­ nance of international relations on the basis of law and justice." The Society serves as a meeting place and forum for scholars, teachers, offi­ cials, lawyers and others, from some ninety-seven countries. At the end of April, it holds a three-day Annual Meeting in Washington at which current problems of international law are discussed. The Society also sponsors regional meetings outside of Washington in co-operation with other institutions. Salient questions of international law and relations are considered in depth by panels and study groups organized by the Society's Board of Review and Development. Works of scholarship are often published under the Society's auspices in connec­ tion with studies sponsored by the Board. The Society periodically issues three publications: The American Journal of International Law, the leading journal in the field of international law, has been published since 1907. A special number of the Journal carries the papers and discussions of the annual meeting of the Society. The Journal is distributed to all members of the Society without additional charge, and is available to non-members at a subscription rate of $30 a year. International Legal Materials, a bimonthly, is a unique international collection of texts of current official documents, including legislation, treaties, court deci­ sions, and reports.
