Reviews
'Jeff Sanders has a well-deserved reputation as one of our most astute analysts of environmentalism. In this engrossing, compelling work, he reframes our understanding of the modern American West and the planetary history of which it is part. No reader of Razing Kids will see the world in quite the same way.' Mark Fiege, Professor of History, Montana State University

Synopsis
Analyzing the linked histories of childhood, the West, and the environment after World War II, Razing Kids argues that in wartime mobilization, post-war defense, public health, anti-poverty programs, and environmental activism, adults consistently paired youth and environment with their visions of the social and environmental good., Children are the future. Or so we like to tell ourselves. In the wake of the Second World War, Americans took this notion to heart. Confronted by both unprecedented risks and unprecedented opportunities, they elevated and perhaps exaggerated the significance of children for the survival of the human race. Razing Kids analyzes the relationship between the postwar demographic explosion and the birth of postwar ecology. In the American West, especially, workers, policymakers, and reformers interwove hopes for youth, environment, and the future. They linked their anxieties over children to their fears of environmental risk as they debated the architecture of wartime playgrounds, planned housing developments and the impact of radioactive particles released from distant hinterlands. They obsessed over how riot-riddled cities, War on Poverty era rural work camps and pesticide-laden agricultural valleys would affect children. Nervous about the world they were making, their hopes and fears reshaped postwar debates about what constituted the social and environmental good.

- a***o (204)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaCan't say much about the item itself as despite successfully travelling from Illinois in the USA to Lancashire in the UK, as soon as it was handed to Evri for local delivery, they lost it. Still, it's been a positive experience. The item was packed and posted very quickly so I'm more than happy to recommend an excellent seller
