The article shows how our society has created one of the oppositions that structures it. It starts with a historic reconstruction of the normalization process to introduce the powerful social-scientific movement of Eugenics and the heredity theory behind it. We analyze the social category of the abnormal as a product of discourses and social practices, in short, historically.
