Eugenics
" Eugenicists considered epilepsy an inherited disorder, and many states sterilized epileptics to prevent its spread. This was another of the eugenicists' misinformed stands — epilepsy's causes are still not fully understood..."

"The Nazi regime in Germany from 1933 to 1945 waged a veritable war throughout Europe to eliminate neurologic disease from the gene pool. Fueled by eugenic policies on racial hygiene, the Nazis first undertook a sterilization campaign against "mental defectives," which included neurologic patients with epilepsy and other disorders, as well as psychiatric patients. From 1939-41 the Nazis instead resorted to "euthanasia" of many of the same patients. Some neuroscientists were collaborators in this program, using patients for research, or using extracted brains following their murder..."

Eugenics / Psychosurgery
"We need a program of psychosurgery for political control of our society. The purpose is physical control of the mind. Everyone who deviates from the given norm can be surgically mutilated. ... Man does not have the right to develop his own mind. This kind of liberal orientation has great appeal. We must electronically control the brain..." - José Manuel Rodriguez Delgado, Spanish professor of physiology at Yale University
"He chose patients who were "desperately ill patients whose disorders had resisted all previous treatments" and implanted electrodes in about 25 of them. Most of these patients were either schizophrenics or epileptics."

"...Psychosurgery, also called neurosurgery for mental disorder (NMD), is the neurosurgical treatment of mental disorder. It was introduced in 1930s and has a controversial history; Portuguese neurologist Egas Moniz is usually credited with being the originator of psychosurgery...Psychosurgery is a collaboration between psychiatrists and neurosurgeons. During the operation...a small piece of brain is destroyed or removed... interest in the neurosurgical treatment of mental illness is shifting from ablative psychosurgery to deep brain stimulation (DBS) where the aim is to stimulate areas of the brain with implanted electrodes."

"Traces of Eugenic Thought in the Work of Egas Moniz... the language of eugenics was present in his work and allowed for connections between the sexual sciences, neo-Malthusianism and medical hygiene."

"Egas Moniz e a História da Psicocirurgia, A. J. Gonçalves Ferreira...
...Nos próximos anos se verá se estes novos procedimentos Psicocirúrgicos, com a sua elevada precisão e reversibilidade de efeitos, comprovam ser tão fecundos e seguros como parecem ser nestes primeiros passos. Outros estudos, ainda experimentais, pretendem testar novos alvos e diferentes tipos de Neuromodulação para tratar outras afecções: epilepsia, depressão grave, dor crónica. Afinal a Psicocirurgia, cujos princípios mantêm a sua validade apesar do ostracismo a que foram votados durante décadas, parece hoje renascer das cinzas. O enorme progresso científico entretanto registado e as técnicas inovadoras que não cessam de surgir podem impulsionar de novo a Psicocirurgia para a vanguarda da Medicina do século XXI. E confirmar assim a genialidade do legado de Egas Moniz."

"A História do Brasil compreende, tradicionalmente, o período desde a chegada dos portugueses até os dias atuais...O período compreendido entre o Descobrimento do Brasil em 1500, (chamado pelos portugueses de Achamento do Brasil), até a Independência do Brasil, é chamado, no Brasil, de Período Colonial...."

"Durante décadas, milhares de pacientes foram internados à força, sem diagnóstico de doença mental, num enorme hospício na cidade de Barbacena, em Minas Gerais. Ali foram torturados, violentados e mortos sem que ninguém se importasse com seu destino. Eram apenas epilépticos, alcoólatras, homossexuais, prostitutas, meninas grávidas pelos patrões, mulheres confinadas pelos maridos, moças que haviam perdido a virgindade antes do casamento. Ninguém ouvia seus gritos...Morriam também de choque. Às vezes os eletrochoques eram tantos e tão fortes, que a sobrecarga derrubava a rede do município...No início dos anos 60, depois de conhecer a Colônia, o fotógrafo Luiz Alfredo, da revista O Cruzeiro, desabafou com o chefe: “Aquilo é um assassinato em massa”. Em 1979, o psiquiatra italiano Franco Basaglia, pioneiro da luta pelo fim dos manicômios que também visitou a Colônia, declarou numa coletiva de imprensa: “Estive hoje num campo de concentração nazista. Em lugar nenhum do mundo, presenciei uma tragédia como essa”."
