The following quotation from a twentieth century dictator reflects the values and beliefs of what theory that emerged during the Industrial Age? "Truly, this earth is a trophy cup for the industrious man. And this rightly so, in the service of natural selection.

He must step aside and allow stronger peoples to pass him by." - Adolf Hitler a Communism b Social Darwinism c Utopian Socialism

    The correct answer is: b) Social Darwinism

    Explanation:

    Social Darwinism is a set of ideologies that adopts and applies Darwin's laws of natural selection and survival of the fittest to societies and political systems, arguing that the "innately better" people or social groups will naturally dominate over other (less capable) people or social groups.

    This ideology was used to justify imperialism and racism over the past century. The best example is Nazi Germany, leaded by Adolf Hitler who claimed the superiority of the Aryan race. When he says that " ( ...) He must step aside and allow stronger peoples to pass him by" he hints at underlying social darwinism.
