#42. Paul Kammerer e01: "A first draft for a communist theory of evolution"
Listen now
Description
Paul Kammerer was once the worlds most famous biologist, a poor leftist jew from Austria surrounded by monsters, made it big despite the odds through a new form of popularisation of science. His audience not consisting exclusively of learned men as was the custom in the first decades of the 20th century, instead, rather, commoners of all walks of life, men and women alike attended his lectures. But then just as "the eclipse of Darwinism" was declared over by UNESCO's latter head Julian Huxley, radioactive eugenicists all over the world declared him a fraud in the yellow press. The road was now swept clean for a genetic reductionism that did no have to bother about environments. For more than a century with the help of the worlds largest newspapers and the highest price committees of biology this notion of fraudulence have been the common opinion, and Paul Kammerer was forgotten. However, very recently thanks to an investigative journalist from Austria, a new picture has been painted which involves scheming New Yorkers and secret societies of the Hapsburg empire with Siegfried bust heads and student faculty groups known as the Swasitkalers. To a soundtrack of the Neue Deutsche Welle I have tried to translate and reveal this picture for you.
