	Social hygiene - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The social or mental hygiene movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries was an attempt by Progressive-era reformers to control venereal disease, regulate prostitution and vice, and disseminate sexual education through the use of scientific research methods and modern media techniques.
		Social hygiene as a profession grew alongside social work and other public health movements of the era.
		Social hygienists emphasized sexual continence and strict self-discipline as a solution to societal ills, tracing prostitution, drug use and illegitimacy to rapid urbanization.

	The Project Gutenberg eBook of The Social Emergency, edited by William Trufant Foster.
		The Social Emergency does not purport to be a comprehensive or systematic treatment of the problems of sex hygiene and morals; it presents merely the views of a number of persons on certain phases of the subject.
		A further significance for social hygiene of the entrance of women into industry is that it places a strain upon the spirit of chivalry which is a basis of right relations between the sexes.
		Social intelligence—the illumination of man's life with man—the scientific and spiritual comprehension of the apostolic dictum, "We are all members one of another"—and "if one member suffer, all members suffer with it"—these are the great arrears of education.

	Racial hygiene - TheBestLinks.com - Social hygiene, Adolf Hitler, Doctor, Eugenics, ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Racial hygiene (sometimes labeled a form of "scientific racism") is the selection, by a government, of the most physical, intellectual and moral persons to raise the next generation (selective breeding) and a close alignment of public health with eugenics.
		One of the confusing aspects of "racial hygiene" is that "race" was often interchangeably used to mean "human race" as well as "German race" as well as "Aryan race" -- three quite different concepts with three quite different implications.
		Adolf Hitler formed a key part of Nazi ideology around the concept of racial hygiene and during his rule the field was elevated to the primary philosophy of the German medical community, first by activist physicians within the medical profession.

		Social hygienists argued that prostitution spread venereal disease; illegitimate infants had high mortality rates and drained the public purse; and the unfit reproduced, weakening the national stock.
		As researchers in the fields of medicine, social work, education, law, sociology, and criminology replaced the concept of sin with the concept of sickness, they simultaneously established themselves as society's doctors, disseminating scientifically sound data on social and sexual matters and demonstrating the efficacy of their methods through experimental social programs.
		Despite social hygiene's claim to scientific authority, hygienists were as concerned with moral cleanliness as with physical vigor.

		Generations of silence, enforced by the powerful influence of social custom, have been suddenly followed by a campaign of pitiless publicity, sanctioned by eminent men and women, and carried forward by the agencies of public education that daily reach the largest number of human beings--namely, the press, the motion picture, and the stage.

		Structural mental hygiene measures depended on the infiltration of mental hygiene ideals in society; the promise of mental hygiene would be realized to "the extent to which the accepted body of mental hygiene knowledge is assimilated and incorporated.

		Diarrhoeal disease is the second largest killer of children under five in developing countries and combating diarrhoea is usually the prime reason for investing in WSS improvements.
		Investing in hygiene promotion to prevent such outbreaks and reduce regular disease is highly cost-effective (Varley and Bendahmane, 1997).When hygiene promotion is combined with access to improved water supply and sanitation, the estimated cost is only US$ 3 per household per year for each averted case of diarrhoea in children under five.
		Sandy Cairncross and Valerie Curtis of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) offer more arguments for promoting hygiene and sanitation in a paper presented at the World Bank Water Forum in 2001 and reprinted on the WSSCC website.

		Instead they are predetermined by impersonal social forces or by biological necessity or by malign influences such as advertising and the desire to conform.
		From the eugenic movement came the idea that many social problems were caused by the persistence of inherited traits and that improvement of the "nations health" would require a close regulation of breeding and childcare.
		The kind of people most attracted to social hygiene by the 1930's were those who advocated a combination of monopoly capital with state regulation and control - something Jones is too polite to describe by its obvious name, fascism.

	Hong Kong cinema in the 1930s: docility, social hygiene, pleasure-seeking & the consolidation of the film industry (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Unpacking the myth of the 1930s as the "golden age" of leisure and pleasure, two forces were displayed in tension: first, the British colonial government's effort to achieve effective government, and second, the local Chinese population's effort to meet the obligation of being both legitimate colonial subjects and at the same time loyal Chinese patriots.
		The first may be termed the discourse of social hygiene, which assumes a top-down responsibility on the part of both colonial administrators and local cultural elites to uphold the spiritual and moral welfare of the ordinary person.
		The Chinese activists' nationalistic emphasis on social hygiene and moral education therefore found its counterpart in the official policy discourses of the Hong Kong-British government.

		The period was one of unparalleled experimentation with the units of housing,[16] experiments aimed expressly at modifying the units of social organization; for example, Charlotte Perkins Gilman couched her assault on existing social structures as an attack on the nuclear family and its architecture.

		A chief factor in environment, he claimed, was hygiene, which sought "to promote in the individual habits of life whose influence is to steady, and to stimulate, and to strengthen both physical and mental powers."[57] Hygiene was both bodily cleanliness and the general habits of life that kept the body clean.
