       insights from 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. 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

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
