    AbstractThe fight against venereal diseases (VD) has often been influenced by the prevailing political and social conditions. At the end of 19th century the increase of VD demanded new strategies. In 1902 the German Society for the Control of VD was founded in Berlin. It was then followed by the foundation of the International Society against VD in Brussels in 1899. In the German empire and during the Nazi regime, authoritarian structures dominated the strategies against VD. The individual had to submit the interests of the society. Sociopolitical aspects influenced the discussions in the fight against VD during the Weimar republic. In 1927 the new laws to control VD met liberal demands.
