Uta G. Poiger traces how westerns, jeans, jazz, rock 'n' roll, and stars like Marlon Brando or Elvis Presley reached adolescents in both Germanies, who eagerly adopted the new styles. Poiger reveals that East and West German authorities deployed gender and racial norms to contain Americanized youth cultures in their own territories and to carry on the ideological Cold War battle with each other. Poiger's lively account is based on an impressive array of sources, ranging from films, newspapers, and contemporary sociological studies, to German and U.S. archival materials. Jazz, Rock, and Rebels examines diverging responses to American culture in East and West Germany by linking these to changes in social science research, political cultures, state institutions, and international alliance systems. In the first two decades of the Cold War, consumer culture became a way to delineate the boundaries between East and West. This pathbreaking study, the first comparative cultural history of the two Germanies, sheds new light on the legacy of Weimar and National Socialism, on gender and race relations in Europe, and on Americanization and the Cold War. 410 0$aStudies on the history of society and culture ;$v35. 606 $aPopular culture$zGermany 606 $aPopular culture$zGermany (East) 606 $aSubculture$zGermany 606 $aSubculture$zGermany (East) 606 $aArt and state$zGermany 606 $aArt and state$zGermany (East) 606 $aYouth$zGermany$xSocial conditions$y20th century 607 $aGermany$xRace relations$xHistory 607 $aGermany$xCivilization$xAmerican influences 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPopular culture 615 0$aPopular culture 615 0$aSubculture 615 0$aSubculture 615 0$aArt and state 615 0$aArt and state 615 0$aYouth$xSocial conditions 676 $a943 700 $aPoiger$b Uta G.$f1965-$01019978 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450594303321 996 $aJazz, rock, and rebels$92408269 997 $aUNINA
