Zusammenfassung: | During the tumultuous formative years of the Canadian welfare state, many women rose through the ranks of the federal civil service to oversee the massive recruitment of Canadian women to aid in the Second World War. Ironically, it became the task of these same female mandarins to encourage women to return to the household once the war was over. Pick One Intelligent Girl reveals the elaborate psychological, economic, and managerial techniques that were used to recruit and train women for wartime military and civilian jobs, and then, at war's end, to move women out of the labour force altogether.Negotiating the fluid boundaries of state, community, industry, and household, and drawing on a wide range of primary sources, Jennifer A. Stephen illustrates how women's relationships to home, work, and nation were profoundly altered during this period. She demonstrates how federal officials enlisted the help of a new generation of 'experts' to entrench a two-tiered training and employment system that would become an enduring feature of the Canadian state.This engaging study not only adds to the debates about the gendered origins of Canada's welfare state, it also makes an important contribution to Canadian social history, labour and gender studies, sociology, and political science |

spelling | Stephen, Jennifer Anne Verfasser aut Pick One Intelligent Girl Employability, Domesticity and the Gendering of Canada's Welfare State, 1939-1947 Jennifer Anne Stephen Toronto University of Toronto Press [2018] © 2007 1 online resource txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Studies in Gender and History Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (publisher's Web site, viewed 07. Dez 2018) During the tumultuous formative years of the Canadian welfare state, many women rose through the ranks of the federal civil service to oversee the massive recruitment of Canadian women to aid in the Second World War. Ironically, it became the task of these same female mandarins to encourage women to return to the household once the war was over. Pick One Intelligent Girl reveals the elaborate psychological, economic, and managerial techniques that were used to recruit and train women for wartime military and civilian jobs, and then, at war's end, to move women out of the labour force altogether.Negotiating the fluid boundaries of state, community, industry, and household, and drawing on a wide range of primary sources, Jennifer A. Stephen illustrates how women's relationships to home, work, and nation were profoundly altered during this period. She demonstrates how federal officials enlisted the help of a new generation of 'experts' to entrench a two-tiered training and employment system that would become an enduring feature of the Canadian state.This engaging study not only adds to the debates about the gendered origins of Canada's welfare state, it also makes an important contribution to Canadian social history, labour and gender studies, sociology, and political science In English Geschichte 1939-1947 gnd rswk-swf Gleichberechtigung (DE-588)4021216-6 gnd rswk-swf Soldatin (DE-588)4181751-5 gnd rswk-swf Frau (DE-588)4018202-2 gnd rswk-swf Arbeitswelt (DE-588)4002805-7 gnd rswk-swf Frauenemanzipation (DE-588)4018218-6 gnd rswk-swf Wehrdienst (DE-588)4117605-4 gnd rswk-swf Feminismus (DE-588)4222126-2 gnd rswk-swf Kanada (DE-588)4029456-0 gnd rswk-swf Kanada (DE-588)4029456-0 g Frau (DE-588)4018202-2 s Arbeitswelt (DE-588)4002805-7 s Gleichberechtigung (DE-588)4021216-6 s Geschichte 1939-1947 z 1\p DE-604 Soldatin (DE-588)4181751-5 s Wehrdienst (DE-588)4117605-4 s 2\p DE-604 Feminismus (DE-588)4222126-2 s Frauenemanzipation (DE-588)4018218-6 s 3\p DE-604 https://doi.org/10.3138/9781442685659 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
