Gender and the Race for Space
Masculinity and the American Astronaut, 1957-1983
Contenu
This book argues that the American astronaut image was informed by early Cold War ideals of masculinity that helped mold a distinctly American (anti-communist) masculinity, which appeared-on the surface anyway-to resolve not only an American "crisis of masculinity" but helped win the Cold War on an ideological and popular level.
