A 1934 essay by Italian anarchist Camillo Berneri (1897-1937) exploring the contentious issue of eugenics, race and racial prejudice in pre-war Europe and the United States, the so-called advanced nations.

And, in Italy, the Italian nationalist press included La Razza, La Stirpe, Il Grido della Stirpe, etc...
