The origin of the Code began in pre–World War II German politics, particularly during the 1930s and 1940s. The pre-war German Medical Association was considered to be a [[progressive]] and democratic association with great concerns for public health, one example being the legislation of compulsory health insurance for German workers.  The use of [[scientific racism]] was supported by the Nazi government in order to use [[biology]] to accomplish their goals of racial purity, a core concept in the [[national socialist]] ideology.
