- English abstract
- This article explores the emergence of medical infrastructure in the Prussian eastern borderland at the turn of the twentieth century. It focuses on attempts by the government in Berlin to improve the economic and cultural status of a peripheral province (Posen) by the enforcement of biopolitical measures. In examining the reception and enactment of ideas formulated in Berlin it demonstrates how these were contested and reshaped on the periphery of empire. <br/>
