Synopsis "The Noir Forties: The American People From Victory to Cold war (in English)"
Richard Lingeman vividly recreates the momentous years between VJ Day in 1945 and the beginning of the Korean War in 1950America's postwar period, the age of anxiety” characterized by the onset of the Red Scare and a nascent resistance to the growing Cold War consensus.The psychological hangover of World War II merged with burgeoning anti-communist paranoia and created a dark mood, a postwar noir” phenomenon. The Noir Forties saw the arrival of McCarthyism and a bleak distortion of American political culture. Lingeman traces the attitudes, hopes and fears, prejudices, and collective dreams and nightmares of the times, as reflected in the media, popular culture, political movements, opinion polls, and psychological studies.Richard Lingeman has created a memorable portrait of what the American people lived, dreamed, and thought during the period that became the crucible in which the destiny of the next forty years was settled.
