You shouldn't have to feel you need to justify social history. On the contrary, it is this kind of history that matters most to most people at most times. Military history is significant, sure, it's just there's a lot more to history than that. I'm not only very glad this channel recognises social history but is also playing a part in showing it to the legions of military history buffs on TH-cam
According to Savage's "Teenage: The invention of Youth 1875 - 1945", the concept of teenagers is older than the Cold War and it is linked to the societal changes of the early XXth century. I recommend the book to anyone interested in the subject.
"I used to be with it but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it and what's it seems weird a scary to me. It will happen to you." Abe Simpson. Still the best description of youth culture.
I was born in 1950 so this was my life. The reason that teens were given so much freedom and money was because our parents had gone through most of their lives being deprived of everything, even the most basic needs living through 10 years of depression followed by 5 years of war. They wanted something different for us, a childhood without want and one without stress. My mom and I even talked about this on numerous occasions. It was a wonderful time to grow up. The 50's were a time of no worry and happy go lucky everything. The Cuban Missile Crisis changed our lives. My generation was turning into teens when that happened and all of a sudden, the safe cocoon broke open and the world looked different. This coincided with the building up of troops in Viet Nam and the music instead of the swinging soft pop of the 50's hit the hard rock of the 60's. Suddenly, conformity went out the window and uniqueness and individuality was the name of the day. And you know the rest of the story. I will tell you I wouldn't choose to have grown up at any other time!
My father grew up in the 40s and his only way of cooking food was to find what he has and put them all in the pot. He lived through the Japanese, and the Communist camps.
One part that is neglected here in the drop in family sizes. Instead of people having 6, 8, or 12 children they were having an average of 5 children in 1950s and each decade after saw that number shrunk. Less sibblings meant more freedom from having to raise their young siblings and more wealth from their parents not needing to be split amongst so many children. Less children gave parents physically more time, energy and money for the child they did have.
@@TJ-bu9zk the real reason for smaller families didn’t come until the early 60’s with The Pill. That really opened the workforce for women. During the war, the birth rate really dropped because of lack of men. Don’t know why birth rates dropped in the 50’s before the pill. Maybe because the military handed out condoms like cigarettes and men used them and saw they worked. I doubt there was more abstinence! 😆😆😆
Had America been more religious, as people foolishly think was the case in the 1950s, they would have raised their kids tough so that they would endure any repeat of the bad situations through which their parents suffered. They would be thinking of raising strong children instead of giving them as much material pleasure as possible, because religion is all about afterlife and lack of materialism. They would be like Batman in a sense. He doesn't shelter Robin, but instead trains him to endure. This is me thinking out loud. I hope you find this interesting.
This is just the sort of documentary that every kid born in the last 50 years should be made to watch because most of them these days are absolutely clueless of why they do what they do and believe what they believe and act the way they act.
David, I just made the connection that you narrated the Kings and Generals podcast series on The Mongols. Just wanted to say, I absolutely loved that series and this channel's also great. Keep it up!
Dr. Benjamin Spock best-selling book Common Sense Book of Baby & Child Care in 1949 was a HUGE SHIFT in parenting style (from direct "old school" to passive "modern accepting") which led to the Baby Boomers upheaval of the 50's and 60's.
I don't know how big an influence the book actually had. It was a staple of my parents' generation to blame Spock for hippies, but was he really all that influential? It may be because I'm Southern, and the culture, schools, and our parents ( mine, anyway ) insisted on discipline and manners from us, but my hunch is that Spock's book, somewhat like the Bible, tended to gather a lot of dust.
Yugoslavia had huge roll in diffusing western culture in the eastern Europe .British ,Italian ,French songs were translated to Serbo Croatian language and then organised tours of the Yugoslav singers to USSR .
So strange that the social norms of conservative 1950s America was for girls to think about boys and parties, and that such a way of life is the correct and responsible way. You would think in a Christian country, the girls would be separate from the boys, praying rather than partying. Mary peace be upon her, the only woman to be mentioned by name in the Quran, and the woman who has an entire chapter named after her in the Quran, was wearing hijab, not trying to get male attention. Eastern Orthodox are the ones who stuck most to Christian tradition. The Protestants paved the way for the modern secular culture.
So basically, this is tragedy of commons playing out in cultural mores. Having left small villages, where ostracism could protect morality standards, humanity is left defenseless against the urge for individual profit through rebelling against current standards. Guess the conservatives had more of a point than just being judgemental about 'sin'.
Muslim societies are full of ostracism even in cities yet their society is united and isn't going through a culture war between left and right like America.
I'm looking forward to the future episode about Western cultural influence on the Soviet youth! Thank you for this one. Stay well out there everybody, and God bless you, friends. ✝️ :)

I’ve slowly began to enjoy this content more than the WW2 in Real Time series. The many different aspects of the cold war that y’all present is awesome!
Very interesting episode. As a youth myself, I often wonder how my generation's outlook compares with that of generations past. One thing I didn't realise was how youth culture in the US differed to that of the UK. Over here, it wasn't until the Swinging 60s that things really took off, and that was very much youth-driven as opposed to consumer driven, at least as far as I can understand. Looking forward to future videos, maybe one covering young people behind the iron curtain?
I must say, I rather enjoyed the notion that being a teenager is an American invention (which is a bit misleading) but perhaps, given the long economic boom enjoyed by the Western World during the post-war years and the associated socio-economic restructuring, I can understand how it could have felt like that to the average American. Thanks for another entertaining and educational episode.
45 rpm records were small, each side holding only 1 song between 3 and 6 minutes long. The 33 rpm record was larger, the true "album" record. It was able to hold several numbers on each side, both sides together it could hold about a half hour of music.
The ending makes me excited for the future episodes, covering the influence of western youth culture getting behind the Iron Curtain. Be sure to mention the Radio Luxembourg!
As one who remembers 45 rpm records quite well, let me assure you that you couldn't buy an album on a 45. A single, yes, because that's all a 45 could hold.
Check out the 1984 film Top Secret with Val Kilmer. Nick Rivers goes to post-war East Germany, and inadvertently influences Teen Culture during his stay. Classic tropes and digs, with the hearts and minds of kids being fought over between East and West.
Is there any evidence that points to U.S. consumer spending during the Cold War being greater due to the fear of future nuclear armageddon? The logic being, why save for a future that may never arrive, instead I’ll just spend more now.
There were also the “Baby Boomers” to take into consideration. During the late 1950s and especially the 1960s there were simply so many teenagers around, that manufacturers and marketeers had to target them. Especially since the kids had more money to spend.
There were more children being born in a consentrated amount of time, but also those family sizes were much smaller than the previous generation. Having less kids meant family money didn't have to be divided among so many children.
Give them whatever they want. Give them whatever they'll pay for. And give it to them NOW! No matter how uncultured or undermining or unhealthy. Sugary, sweet, sentimental... whatever...It's all about turnover. The Big Buck. The American/Western way. Say "cheese"! Big smile with braces and straight teeth and cool hair/clothes/shoes... An African beat rock'n'roll if that what turns them on, gets them moving and spend money... Who cares about morality? That's old fashioned. Gotta be hip. Gotta be cool. Gotta be with it. The party will go on forever. You'll never get old. There is no tomorrow. There is no price to pay for all the fun. “More doctors smoke Camels than any other cigarette." "Have a Coke!" "Have a drink, have a drive - go out and see what you can find... If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal - if her daddy's poor, just do what you feel"... The Soviet way was - give them dreary, endless lectures on Marxism, give them endless propaganda on how bad the West was, give them fear of the government/bureaucracy/secret police, give them dull clothes and dull cities and dull culture, give them 20 years to wait for an apartment/car, give them 20 years in the gulag if they don't conform... The noise and the opulence from the West spilled over the airwaves into the East Block. Their youth became restless and impatient. They wanted to have cool clothes also. And have fun. And let loose. The Beatles and The Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd did more to bring down the East Block than speeches or threats or space wars. China now blocks all Western media. That's what they fear most. What happened to the East Block will happen to them. Mammon rolling over all ideological strictures. Or will the totalitarian bureaucracy sneak through the back door of the decadent, spoiled, aimless West? Looking at Mayorkas and Garland and the FBI going after all political opposition, labelling parents concerned about CRT "domestic terrorists", opening the southern border to anyone and anything - fentanyl, sex trafficking, cartels, etc. - to wander in in order to heighten chaos and confusion and fear, it's starting to look that way. Bureaucrats abusing ever more restrictive laws - the "Patriot Act". Bureaucrats telling Presidents what to do. Fixing "elections". False flags like nine-11. Manufacturing gone to China replaced by conjured-out-of-thin-air money. Money backed by nothing other than a bloated military - the Petrodollar. Or do we have enough moral fibre, family values, sense of community, to maintain our freedoms? To gamble and make it or screw up in any way we individually choose. Or has the degenerate "rebellion" against a "structure" - religious, social, academic - that is not even there anymore exhausted itself? We live in interesting times. Things at this moment can go very bad very fast. Perhaps we should look back to some perennial, life-affirming, spiritual values. Perhaps we should start manufacturing things ourselves again. Perhaps we should control the border again. Perhaps we should get an honest and noble and transparent government again. Perhaps we should stop blaming Russia for everything. Perhaps we should start making Western Civilization great again. Something to be proud of. Something to fight for.
Interesting that the land of freedom, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness forced all people into certain stereotypes... But then they're taught that the same exact thing was bad in the USSR...
