ABSTRACT

The collectivistic aspect involves the sifting of the human material to be used for the construction of the new World Order. Here, the issue at stake is when and how human life has to be protected or sacrificed by the criminal law, not as in our foregoing discussion in the interest of the individual but for the benefit of the community at large. It is, in fact, the population problem itself, seen from the point of view of the criminal law, that is involved, and the questions to be discussed under this heading are: the extermination of lives useless for the community; sterilization and castration; birth control and abortion.
