dc.description.abstract | Social Darwinism was an intellectual movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries that merged Charles Darwin’s biological theory of evolution with theories about human economies and societies. Social Darwinism indirectly contributed to German militarism and World War I. Scholars continue to debate the extent to which Social Darwinism underpinned British, European, and American poor laws, philanthropy, and eugenics. | en_US |
