Jennifer Helgren argues that a new internationalist girl citizenship took root in the country in the years following World War II in youth organizations such as Camp Fire Girls, Girl Scouts, YWCA Y -Teens, schools, and even magazines like Seventeen. She shows the particular ways that girls' identities and roles were configured, and reveals the links between internationalist youth culture, mainstream U.S. educational goals, and the U.S. government in creating and marketing that internationalist girl, thus shaping the girls' sense of responsibilities as citizens"--|cProvided by publisher. 520 2 "This book brings together Cold War culture studies, girls' studies, and the history of gender and militarization to shed new light on how age and gender work together to form categories of citizenship. In the post-World War II period, lessons about world friendship and peace became mainstream in US schools and youth organizations as educators and youth leaders sought to reduce conflict in the atomic age and contribute to an image of the United States as a benevolent global leader. American Girls and Global Responsibility argues that a new internationalist girl citizenship took root in the United States in the years following World War II in youth organizations such as Camp Fire Girls, Girl Scouts, YWCA Y Teens, schools, and even magazines like Seventeen. The internationalist focus of youth culture in the 1940s and 1950s, much of it developed in girls' institutions, laid a firm foundation for interest in the Peace Corps, an institution that is often credited with first engaging US youth in internationalism; however, this book contends that a new girl citizenry emerged earlier, after the Second World War. With a few significant exceptions, little attention has been paid to internationalism in 1940s and 1950s youth culture, let alone girls' culture. Yet, this project shows the particular ways that girls' identities and roles were configured and reveals the links between internationalist youth culture, mainstream US educational goals, and the US government in creating and marketing that internationalist girl. By unearthing girls' voices in pen-pal letters and scrapbooks, this book reveals how postwar internationalism shaped girls' sense of their responsibilities as citizens"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed March 22, 2017). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 647 7 Cold War|d(1945-1989)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1754978 648 7 20th century|2fast 648 7 1945-1953|2fast 648 7 1953-1961|2fast 650 0 Teenage girls|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85000957|xPolitical activity|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002011434|zUnited States|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781|xHistory|y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2002006165 650 0 Youth|xPolitical activity|zUnited States|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008124422|xHistory |y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2002006165 650 0 Girls|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh94000054|xSocieties and clubs|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2001008900|xHistory |y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2002006165 650 0 Sex role|xPolitical aspects|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2010112874|zUnited States|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781|xHistory|y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2002006165 650 0 Responsibility|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85113235|xPolitical aspects|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00005651|zUnited States|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781|xHistory|y20th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2002006165 650 0 Citizenship|zUnited States|xHistory|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2009119868|y20th century.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002012476 650 0 Internationalism|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85067462|xSocial aspects|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh00002758|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n78095330-781|xHistory|y20th century. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006165 650 0 Cold War|xSocial aspects|zUnited States|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009120578|xHistory. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 7 Teenage girls.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1145412 650 7 Political participation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1069386 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Youth|xPolitical activity.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1183486 650 7 Girls.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/942866 650 7 Sex role|xPolitical aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1114616 650 7 Responsibility|xPolitical aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1095860 650 7 Responsibility.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1095857 650 7 Citizenship.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/861909 650 7 Internationalism.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 977173 650 7 Social aspects.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1354981 650 7 International relations.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/977053 650 7 Youth.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0001520 650 7 Girls.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0000590 650 7 Gender roles.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/ homoit0000577 651 0 United States|xForeign relations|y1945-1953.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85140097 651 0 United States|xForeign relations|y1953-1961.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85140099 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|z9780813575797|z0813575796|w(DLC) 2016025800|w(OCoLC)959034426 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1455678|zOnline eBook.
