Sažetak

The article reviews two themes related to eugenics: sex selection and eugenics in China. Sex selection is brought up as an example of a s.c. laissez–faire eugenics, proving that unintended consequences of personal choices may lead to eugenic consequences. Contemporary Chinese eugenics is an example of a more rigid eugenics known from the past. First part (on Chinese eugenics) reviews arguments and ideological statements brought by Sun–Dong Sheng and Xiao Ping, while the second presents mainly an excellent study by Wertz and Fletcher (1997). The article presents “real–life” arguments for author's more general framework on eugenics published elsewhere.
