The Jukes were initially brought to the fore in the 1870s by a famous investigation that aimed at estimating the interplay of heredity and environment in determining the problems of poverty and crime. This inquiry triggered a harsh confrontation between two polar interpretations of the study, an \u201cenvironmentalist\u201d one and a \u201chereditarian\u201d one. It was with the later reassessment of the case made by the Eugenics American Office (ERO) in the 1910s that the controversy was considered closed with the victory of the eugenicists\u2019 hereditarian stance. As a result, the family was made a living proof of the alleged hereditary nature of crime and pauperism and a case study in support of the eugenicists\u2019 plea for the sterilization of people deemed the bearers of hereditary defectiveness. In this article, I explore the role played by pedigrees and other diagrammatic representations in the eugenicists\u2019 appropriation of the meaning of the case of the Juke family and the role played by this appropriation in asserting the superiority of the ERO\u2019s method of work over rival approaches.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10739-023-09755-3","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,12]],"date-time":"2024-02-12T16:02:55Z","timestamp":1707753775000},"page":"51-87","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["\u201cAt a Glance:\u201d The Role of Diagrammatic Representations in Eugenics Appropriations of the \u201cInfamous Juke Family\u201d"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"57","author":[{"given":"Andrea","family":"Ceccon","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"9755_CR1","volume-title":"Exposition and illustration in teaching","author":"John Adams","year":"1910","unstructured":"Adams, John. 1910.
