Do you think that the degeneration theory affected society in any way? What's your opinion?
That's interesting. Do you think any countries implemented policies based on this theory?
Yes, several countries, including the United States, Canada, and various European nations, implemented eugenics policies based on degeneration theory principles. For example, forced sterilization of individuals deemed "unfit" was practiced in many of these countries.
