The End of Containment: The Baby Boom Comes of Age. 520 1 $a "In the 1950s, the term "containment" referred to the foreign policy-driven containment of Communism and atomic proliferation. Yet in Homeward Bound May demonstrates that there was also a domestic version of containment where the "sphere of influence" was the home. Within its walls, potentially dangerous social forces might be tamed, securing the fulfilling life to which postwar women and men aspired. Homeward Bound tells the story of domestic containment -- how it emerged, how it affected the lives of those who tried to conform to it, and how it unraveled in the wake of the Vietnam era's assault on Cold War culture, when unwed mothers, feminists, and "secular humanists" became the new "enemy." This revised and updated edition includes the latest information on race, the culture wars, and current cultural and political controversies of the post-Cold War era."--Jacket 650 0 $a Families $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a United States $x Social conditions $y 1945- 650 0 $a Baby boom generation $z United States. 650 6 $a Familles $z EÌtats-Unis $x Histoire $y 20e sieÌcle. 651 6 $a EÌtats-Unis $x Conditions sociales $y 1945- 650 6 $a GeÌneÌration du baby-boom $z EÌtats-Unis. 650 7 $a Baby boom generation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00824987 650 7 $a Families. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01728849 650 7 $a Social conditions $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 $1 https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJtxgQXMWqmjMjjwXRHgrq 648 7 $a Since 1900 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a May, Elaine Tyler. $t Homeward bound. $b Rev. and updated ed. $d [New York] : Basic Books, ©1999 $w (OCoLC)989014491 941 $a 1 952 $l OUAX845 $d 20240816035351.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=481F9A985B9611EFABE9BE7952ECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOTInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
