Sommario/riassunto |
|
Dad built a bomb shelter in the backyard, Mom stocked the survival kit in the basement, and the kids practiced ducking under their desks at school. This was family life in the new era of the A-bomb. This was civil defense. In this provocative work of social and political history, Laura McEnaney takes us into the secretive world of defense planners and the homes of ordinary citizens to explore how postwar civil defense turned the front lawn into the front line. The reliance on atomic weaponry as a centerpiece of U.S. foreign policy cast a mushroom cloud over everyday life. American citizens now had to imagine a new kind of war, one in which they were both combatants and targets. It was the Federal Civil Defense Administration's job to encourage citizens to adapt to their nuclear present and future. As McEnaney demonstrates, the creation of a civil defense program produced new dilemmas about the degree to |

which civilian society should be militarized to defend itself against internal and external threats. Conflicts arose about the relative responsibilities of state and citizen to fund and implement a home-front security program. The defense establishment's resolution was to popularize and privatize military preparedness. The doctrine of "self-help" defense demanded that citizens become autonomous rather than rely on the federal government for protection. Families would reconstitute themselves as paramilitary units that could quash subversion from within and absorb attack from without. Because it solicited an unprecedented degree of popular involvement, the FCDA offers a unique opportunity to explore how average citizens, community leaders, and elected officials both participated in and resisted the creation of the national security state. Drawing on a wide variety of archival sources, McEnaney uncovers the broad range of responses to this militarization of daily life and reveals how government planners and ordinary people negotiated their way at the dawn of the atomic age. Her work sheds new light on the important postwar debate about what total military preparedness would actually mean for American society. |

Sommario/riassunto |

Die deutsche Schweiz gilt als typischer Fall einer Diglossiesituation, in der die Dialekte die ausschliessliche Alltagsvarietät aller Bevölkerungskreise darstellen. Die historischen Bedingungen, die zu dieser sprachgeschichtlichen Entwicklung geführt haben, sind bislang jedoch wenig untersucht. Die Studie analysiert die öffentlichen Debatten zum Schweizerdeutschen und zum Verhältnis zwischen Dialekt und Standardsprache in der Deutschschweiz des 19. Jahrhunderts. Auf dieser Grundlage rekonstruiert sie zeitgenössische Spracheinstellungen und dominante Formen kollektiven Sprachbewusstseins. Sie zeigt, wie sich vor dem Hintergrund gesellschaftsgeschichtlicher Entwicklungen ein nationales Sprachbewusstsein ausbildet, aus dem heraus sich die Diglossie als spezifisches Element einer (Deutsch)Schweizer Sprachkultur konsolidiert, die bis in die Gegenwart anhält. Die Erkenntnisse über die sprachbewusstseinsgeschichtlichen Prozesse des 19. Jahrhunderts, zu denen die Untersuchung eines umfassenden Quellenkorpus gelangt, führen zu nachhaltigen Einsichten in die Geschichte der Deutschschweizer Diglossie und leisten einen massgeblichen Beitrag zum Verständnis der Deutschschweizer Sprachsituation. |
Little is known about the conditions that led to German-Swiss diglossia. Based on public discourse about Swiss German, the study shows that with respect to the history of language awareness, today's typical bilingualism in Swiss German and standard German became consolidated in the 19th century in close relation to societal processes. The study is a major contribution to the linguistic history of German-speaking Switzerland. |
