요약This dissertation explores how notions of "youth" ("jeunesse") and generational difference were used in postwar France to characterize and encapsulate the era's rapid socio-cultural and economic changes. It argues that the confluence of population and economic growth between 1945-1973 contributed to a dominant discourse linking youthfulness to societal change at a time of sweeping social and economic transformation. In 1945, France was defined by its aging and largely rural population as well as its far-flung empire. Within a generation, the country, shorn of its colonies, had become a highly urbanized and technologically advanced mass consumer society firmly situated within an integrating Europe. "Modernization" provided the ideological undercurrent to this makeover, as an elite milieu of academics, business leaders, and policymakers preached the virtues of technology, efficiency, and material gain. Across four diverse case studies, this dissertation demonstrates how "youth," serving as an elastic social ideal rather than a fixed demographic category, became a rhetorical device to frame, and often legitimate, discourses on "modernization." Amid a larger renegotiation of French national identity, notions of youth and generational difference helped accentuate perceived ruptures with the past and offered, for those inclined to appropriate them, a useful collection of contrasts: between new and old, "modernity" and "tradition," change and continuity.This dissertation also interrogates the narratives of social, cultural, and economic "progress" that accompanied processes of postwar change. By stressing the disruptive effects of postwar policies of "modernization" and the uneven access to the fruits of France's "economic miracle," this dissertation highlights the limits of the "Trente Glorieuses" ("Thirty Glorious Years"), a periodization that has long projected a story of linear progress amid rapid economic and demographic change. In doing so, it brings discourses on youth to the forefront of an emerging scholarly critique of the Trente Glorieuses and its embedded mythologies.

■520    ▼aThis  dissertation  explores  how  notions  of  "youth"  ("jeunesse")  and  generational  difference  were  used  in  postwar  France  to  characterize  and  encapsulate  the  era's  rapid  socio-cultural  and  economic  changes.  It  argues  that  the  confluence  of  population  and  economic  growth  between  1945-1973  contributed  to  a  dominant  discourse  linking  youthfulness  to  societal  change  at  a  time  of  sweeping  social  and  economic  transformation.  In  1945,  France  was  defined  by  its  aging  and  largely  rural  population  as  well  as  its  far-flung  empire.  Within  a  generation,  the  country,  shorn  of  its  colonies,  had  become  a  highly  urbanized  and  technologically  advanced  mass  consumer  society  firmly  situated  within  an  integrating  Europe.  "Modernization"  provided  the  ideological  undercurrent  to  this  makeover,  as  an  elite  milieu  of  academics,  business  leaders,  and  policymakers  preached  the  virtues  of  technology,  efficiency,  and  material  gain.  Across  four  diverse  case  studies,  this  dissertation  demonstrates  how  "youth,"  serving  as  an  elastic  social  ideal  rather  than  a  fixed  demographic  category,  became  a  rhetorical  device  to  frame,  and  often  legitimate,  discourses  on  "modernization."  Amid  a  larger  renegotiation  of  French  national  identity,  notions  of  youth  and  generational  difference  helped  accentuate  perceived  ruptures  with  the  past  and  offered,  for  those  inclined  to  appropriate  them,  a  useful  collection  of  contrasts:  between  new  and  old,  "modernity"  and  "tradition,"  change  and  continuity.This  dissertation  also  interrogates  the  narratives  of  social,  cultural,  and  economic  "progress"  that  accompanied  processes  of  postwar  change.  By  stressing  the  disruptive  effects  of  postwar  policies  of  "modernization"  and  the  uneven  access  to  the  fruits  of  France's  "economic  miracle,"  this  dissertation  highlights  the  limits  of  the  "Trente  Glorieuses"  ("Thirty  Glorious  Years"),  a  periodization  that  has  long  projected  a  story  of  linear  progress  amid  rapid  economic  and  demographic  change.  In  doing  so,  it  brings  discourses  on  youth  to  the  forefront  of  an  emerging  scholarly  critique  of  the  Trente  Glorieuses  and  its  embedded  mythologies.
