Chapter 11 Activities
Chapter 11
Activity One
During the “Thirty Glorious Years” many trends emerged that would disrupt Western societies. The further rise of mass society strained racial, gender, and intergenerational relations. One means of exploring these trends is to examine the site The History of Rock and Roll: The Golden Years, 1954-1963. Using either the frames or non-frames version, read the essays about the growth of this new medium of popular culture. You can also listen to many of the songs on this site by using the audio jukebox link. After you have explored the material, ponder the following questions: How did rock and roll represent a “youth rebellion?” What were young people in the United States rebelling against? How did rock music express this rebellion? How did rock music challenge race and gender relations in the United States? Why do you think that rock and roll music has become a global phenomenon since the 1950s?
Activity Two
Another major theme of this chapter is exploring how growing global interdependency undermined Stalinist policies in Eastern Europe. To further explore this phenomenon, go to The Soviet Invasion of Czechoslovakia: August 1968, Materials from the Labadie Collection of Social Protest Material. and BBC On this Day: 1968: Russia brings winter to 'Prague Spring.' Click on all the links to learn more about this development. How did growing communication and technological sophistication further the goals of Czechoslovakians seeking greater freedoms during 1968? How important was Western culture in influencing the people in Eastern Europe? How did this rebellion symbolize an assertion of a separate identity among its participants? Why did these aspirations threaten the Soviet Union?
