Sumario:[EN] Anarchist neo-Malthusianism is increasingly receiving historiographical attention. This article deals with the following question: Did early anarchist neo-Malthusianism in Barcelona have anything to do with eugenics? To what extent, and how? To answer this, the article examines the transnational nature of the anarchist movement, in which cities played an essential role. This is shown in the strong connection between the Barcelona group and the French one, which had inherited the teachings of Paul Robin. The article’s thesis is that, although neo-Malthusianism and anarchism were different movements, the fact that they shared the goal of regenerating the species allows us to establish points of contact between them, even though the anarchists formally rejected eugenics on occasion.
