History-Cold War in US Part II

Aim: America in the 1950s: Politics, Cold War at Home & Suburbanization

1. KQ: Who was Dwight Eisenhower?
2. What are some examples of the conservatism of his presidency?
3. Why was conservatism valued in those years?

1. War Hero ⇒ immensely popular
2. Architect of D-Day invasion
3. Calm/serene leader
4. Courted by both parties in 1945
5. 1951 – declares candidacy as Republican
6. Vice President Nixon ⇒ attacking Alger Hiss in 1946 for treason
7. K1C2 = campaign slogan against Adlai Stevenson
-Victory and end to Korean War
-Communism and corruption must be ended

2. Eisenhower’s Governing:
-Moderate Republican: cabinet included corporate leaders
-Conservative economic ideas ⇒laissez-faire, keep government out of economy
-Pro-business ⇒ submerged Land Act
$40 billion worth of land opened to oil drilling
-Cabinet included corporate CEOs. Close to GM
-Appointments to FTC sympathetic to corporate/big business interests

Eisenhower also supported some “liberal” programs:
-Expanded social security
-Expanded unemployment benefits
-Increased minimum wage
-National Defense Education Act (1957) ⇒ Sputnik reaction
Goal: to improve science programs
-Reluctant to initiate tax cuts

Critiques of Eisenhower:
1. Economic growth = 2,5% (stagnant, too little)
2. Failure to address civil rights questions
(Exception = Little Rock, 1957)



Aim:
1) Suburbanization
2) Consumerism
3) Postwar Cultural Shirts

Suburbanization: move out of cities to surrounding areas, in search of better quality of life
-4 room homes, plot of ground
-By 1960: 25% of Americans lived in suburbs
-Marriage doubled= need for living space, raising children: Baby Boom
-Grilling space
-Government encouraged home building and purchase VA and FHA: provided loans
-Highway ACT (1956)
-1950-1960: 11 million homes built in suburbs
18 million people moved to suburbs

Consumerism: when individuals are considered economically as consumers.
-Mass consumption: home appliances, cars, TVs, lawnmowers, fridge, knives, grills, clothing, electronics, radios, durable appliances (washing machine), supermarket groceries, conspicuous consumption.
-Advertising encourages consumption to demonstrate social mobility and represent an “American Dream” come true
-Family vacations

History-Cold War in US

Cold War in the US

December 7, 2010

Aim: 1) The Failure of Truman’s Liberal program, 145-1946

KQ: What happened to FDR’s liberal programs during the Truman Administration?

1. Liberal program:

FDR= New Deal 1933-1935

-Social Security, welfare state, housing, employment, satisfying labor demands (raising wages) protecting jobs

-Program if Democratic Party

-FDR’s legacy

2. FDR’s programs:

-Cut short by war

-War created jobs, which replaced New Deal employment programs

-WPA+NYA+ were abandoned

3. Truman’s liberal legislative program (1945):

-Full employment

-Higher wages

-National housing legislation

4. Result in Congress

- Truman lacks a liberal majority in Congress

-Amendments to bill: substituted “full employment” with “maximum employment” which accepted 5-6% unemployment

-Failed to increase minimum wage

-Did not extend SS

-$4 billion to aid business industry

5. Why did the liberal programs fail?

Chafe, p. 75

-Government negative response to social activism (trade union protest) because the politics of anti-communism stigmatized liberals and liberal programs as sympathetic to Communism. “Red Scare”

-Postwar changes in housing, prosperity and consumerism were positive for many Americans, thus the American people’s demand and need for state-sponsored liberal programs receded.

*NB: Not all Americans shared in the postwar prosperity

6. Consequences:

- 1946 Legislative elections won by Republicans

- Elections of Senator McCarthy and Nixon

-Rise of politics of anticommunism

- Protests by labor unions (anti-government)
