McEuen examines how extensively women's bodies and minds became "battlegrounds" in the U.S. fight for victory in World War II. 520 Women were encouraged to believe that the nation's success depended on their effortsùnot just on factory floors, but at their dressing tables, bathroom sinks, and laundry rooms. Scrutinized and sexualized in new ways, women understood that their faces, clothes, and comportment would indicate how seriously they took their responsibilities as citizens. McEuen also shows that the wartime rhetoric of freedom, democracy, and postwar opportunity coexisted uneasily with the realities of a racially stratified society. The context of war created and reinforced the desirability of whiteness, and McEuen explores how African Americans grappled with whiteness as representing the true American identity. --Book Jacket. 588 0 Print version record. 590 JSTOR 647 7 World War|d(1939-1945)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01180924 648 7 1900-1999|2fast 650 0 Women|zUnited States|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945|zUnited States. 650 0 Femininity|zUnited States|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Advertising|xCosmetics|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Advertising|xClothing and dress|xHistory|y20th century. 650 6 Femmes|zÉtats-Unis|xHistoire|y20e siècle. 650 6 Guerre mondiale, 1939-1945|zÉtats-Unis. 650 6 Féminité|zÉtats-Unis|xHistoire|y20e siècle. 650 6 Cosmétiques|xPublicité|xHistoire|y20e siècle. 650 6 Vêtements|xPublicité|xHistoire|y20e siècle. 650 7 SOCIAL SCIENCE|xWomen's Studies.|2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY|zUnited States|y20th Century.|2bisacsh 650 7 Advertising|xClothing and dress.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00797583 650 7 Advertising|xCosmetics.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00797595 650 7 Femininity.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00922657 650 7 Women.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01176568 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 Electronic books.|2gtlm 776 08 |iPrint version:|aMcEuen, Melissa A., 1961-|tMaking war, making women.|dAthens : University of Georgia Press, ©2011 |z9780820329048|w(DLC) 2010020412|w(OCoLC)633141010 830 0 JSTOR DDA. 856 40 |uhttps://go.openathens.net/redirector/ sewanee.edu?url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/10.2307/ j.ctt46nj8g|zView ebook from JSTOR.
