Abstract

The reconstruction of the evolutionary history of this professional association lays its focus on the developments which contributed to the society's formal foundation during the time of the patient killings in Germany after 1939. Methodologically the study follows strategies of historical network analysis including the main actors of the foundation process. The foundation of this society can be seen as the result of the interaction of a) the Reichs-Health-Agency, its president Hans Reiter, and Fritz Rott as National Socialist health politicians, b) the scientific development geared to this policy of a young discipline that shared its knowledge base as well as its medical 'object' with established specialties like psychiatry and pediatrics, c) a postulated need for character studies, prognosis and selection, and d) personal as well as professional-political interests of the main protagonists Schroeder and Villinger. Once more it is obvious that medicine and politics were not only interwoven, but in certain areas in accordance with each other. Borders could rather be established between social regulatory instances. The foundation of the DGKH (Deutsche Gesellschaft fur Kinderpsychiatrie und Heilpadagogik; German Society for Child Psychiatry and Therapeutic Education) is an example of a 'radical regulatory reasoning' according to Raphael, that by means of institutional arrangements at medium level ( Raphael, 2001) was supposed to implement the 'new National-Socialist order'.
