Cornelis Willem (Wim) Rietdijk was a Dutch theoretical physicist, mathematician, teacher, and publicist (1927-2020). He gained recognition for his works in cultural and social philosophy, emphasizing Enlightenment ideals and applying scientific knowledge to societal issues. Rietdijk adopted a utilitarian morality and opposed postmodernism and relativism. His radical views led to significant controversy, particularly his stances on eugenics and euthanasia for severely disabled children, resulting in accusations of discrimination. He taught at the Lorentz Lyceum in Haarlem starting in 1968 until his death in Bloemendaal.
