Er beginnt seine berufliche Tätigkeit 1952 im Bundesministerium für Ernährung, Landwirtschaft und Forsten und wird Mitglied der ständigen deutschen Delegation für die Verhandlungen über eine europäische Agrarunion (‚Pool vert’) (1952-1954). Er nimmt ebenfalls an den Verhandlungen über den EWG-Vertrag, über die Vereinbarkeit des EWG-Vertrages mit dem GATT und über eine Europäische Freihandelszone teil (1956-1958). Im März 1958 tritt er als Assistent des Generaldirektors Louis Rabot in den Dienst der Europäischen Kommission, Generaldirektion Landwirtschaft (GDVI). 1967 wird er Direktor für ‚Allgemeine Angelegenheiten’ (Internationale Angelegenheiten einschließlich Beitrittsverhandlungen im Agrarsektor), 1972 stellvertretender Generaldirektor mit den Direktionen ‚Wirtschaft, Agrarstruktur und Ausrichtungs- und Garantiefonds für die Landwirtschaft’. Ab 1979 übernimmt er die Direktion ‘Internationale Angelegenheiten der Landwirtschaft’ und damit unter anderem die Beitrittsverhandlung mit Spanien und Portugal im Agrarsektor und die Eröffnung der Urugay-Runde des GATT. 1987 tritt er in den Ruhestand; in demselben Jahr ist er Sonderberater bei der Ausarbeitung des ersten Entwurfs des Kommissionsdokumentes ‚Zukunft des ländlichen Raumes’. Er war Präsident der ‚Association Oecuménique pour Eglise et Société’ in Brüssel und ist Autor zahlreicher Schriften zur Gemeinsamen Agrarpolitik. Helmut von Verschuer Documents from 1953 to 2011 Suite à la signature d’un contrat de dépôt avec Helmut von Verschuer en novembre 2010, ses papiers personnels sont conservés aux AHUE à Florence depuis avril 2011. En Janvier 2015 un deuxième groupe de documents a été transféré à Florence. Le fonds HvV compte 171 dossiers, représentant environ 6 mètres linéaires. Il se compose de documents remontant aux débuts de sa vie professionnelle au sein du ‘Bundesministerium für Ernährung’ et allant jusqu’aux diverses activités exercées après sa retraite de la Commission européenne en 1987. Une collection complète des publications de Helmut von Verschuer, divers journaux de voyages, des photographies ainsi que des recueils de documents sur les débuts de la Communauté économique européenne (CEE) et de la politique agricole commune (PAC) complètent l’ensemble. Les documents recueillis par Helmut von Verschuer en 1950/51 et 1955 pour la rédaction de ses thèses universitaires font également partie du dépôt. Ce dernier comporte en particulier des dossiers sur les négociations agricoles du GATT en 1986 ("Uruguay Round") et l’étude amorcée et coordonnée par Helmut von Verschuer "The Impact of Disharmonies in the EC and US Agricultural Policy Measures". Le thème du futur de l’espace rural dans l’optique de la réforme de la politique agricole est également bien documenté : au-delà de l’étude du groupe de travail présidé par Helmut von Verschuer ayant abouti au rapport "Avenir du monde rural", adopté en juillet 1988 par la Commission Européenne, de nombreuse pièces soulignent l’intérêt du déposant pour ce thème jusqu’aux années quatre-vingt-dix. Une série de l'inventaire est enfin consacrée au ‘lupin amer’, question particulièrement chère à Helmut von Verschuer. Le classement thématique des papiers a tenu compte de leur provenance et de leur typologie, les dossiers déjà triés par le déposant ayant toutefois été respectés. La description du fonds a été effectuée au niveau des pièces. Ruth Ingeborg Meyer Belardini, Octobre 2011 et Mars 2015 Physical characteristics: L'état de conservation de certains documents est à revoir.

    3/4/2021 Otmar Freiherr von Verschuer - Wikipedia Otmar Freiherr von Verschuer Otmar Freiherr von Verschuer (16 July 1896 – 8 August 1969) was a German human biologist, national socialist, and geneticist, who was the Professor of Human Genetics at the University of Professor Münster until he retired in 1965. A member of the Dutch noble Verschuer family, his title Freiherr Otmar Freiherr von Verschuer is often translated as baron. He was regarded as a pioneer in the twin methodology of genetics research and in the study of the inheritance of diseases and anomalies.[1] A eugenicist with an interest in racial hygiene, he was an advocate of compulsory sterilization programs in the first half of the 20th century.[2][3] Among his many students was Josef Mengele, a war criminal who directed experiments on children at Auschwitz. He successfully redefined himself as a geneticist in the postwar era. During the 1950s and 1960s, he was known for research on the effects of nuclear radiation on humans and for his warnings against the possibility of creating "scientifically improved" human beings offered by genetic science. Verschuer was the director of the Institute for Genetic Biology and Racial Hygiene from 1935 to 1942 and director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute of Anthropology, Human Heredity, and Eugenics from 1942 to 1948. From 1951 to 1965, he was Professor of Human Genetics at the University of Münster, where he also served as Dean of the Faculty of Medicine. At Münster, he established one of the largest centers of genetics research in West Germany, and remained one of the world's most Otmar von Verschuer (rear) supervises prominent genetics researchers until his death.

Britain and Ireland were two of four countries that sought membership during the period examined by the book; the two other applicants were Denmark and Norway. However, while the central focus of this research is on the Commis- sion’s relations with Britain and Ireland within the framework of the enlargement question, references will be made to the positions of the Danish and Norwegian governments wherever a policy position diverged or converged. 3.
