Eugenics, Techne, Self-Overcoming

Two main stages of Techne are: 1. Learn a causal pattern, and 2. Actuate it.  Techne this involves a mastery of the discovered pattern.  Now, Eugenics, e. g. crop rotation, is an example of Techne.  Thus, so, too, is Human Eugenics, e. g. miscegenation.  But, because the mastery involved is of Humans, by Humans, Human Eugenics exemplifies Self-Mastery, or what Nietzsche calls Self-Overcoming.  As a response to the procreative impulse, this exercise of Techne is an alternative to succumbing to it, to detachment from it, and to sublimate it to a different creative activity.
