It was a bold experiment organising a fort­ night’s excursions from the city schools, but all who were assoelated with these excursions in any eapaoity must agree that they were an unqualified success* It Is difficult to estimate the significance of such an excursion for 01a a go w Children* the rich and varied experiences of the day, the novelty, the glamour which invests the most trivial incident, the memories which will but mellow with the years * On ausii a day nothing is commonplace . The children assemble in the school playground* All is excitement. Eyes are bright and shining with keen antici­ pation* A murmur of eonversation runs through the class* groups From a little group of boys comes a voice ’Did ye hear Urn say that after we eat, the time’s oor aln to three o’clock?' Another responds ’By jings, it’ll be ©or ain tael’ They are just like puppies being let off the. lead. This is not an ordinary holiday. It is not a holiday from school, it is a genuine school holiday, Their first feeling is that this is a school day that is going to be different. Tramcars are waiting and off we go, A talkative conductor tries to discuss the day’s news with us on the - 2 - platform, but he might a* wall save his breath: the occu­ pants of the top deck are bawling ’Roll along, covered waggon, roll along1, while at the same time those down- it a Ire are loudly lamenting * poor old Joe’ * we arrive eventually at Bridge Wharf, and then there are all the tfarilla Of embarkation. At the gangway eaeh child re­ ceives two packages, a bun and a biscuit to take the edge off appetite, a little box of chocolate drops to whet the edge of enjoyment* By the time these have received due attention Bridge Wharf la far behind, we are well on our way *doon the Wetter<. Everything moves steadily past aa H w m NMPI# leiUtfUi' :^e b ^he'Vfcil - the long line of wharves, doeka, shipyards, ahipa and yet more ahipa, the ’Queen Mary’ massive yet graceful, cranes gigantic against the Sky, a dredger at work, Dumbarton Rock* Hew we are Into more spacious country, hills merge into hills, leading the eye to the far herIson. And the children} Some are standing at the rail taking in every detail of the changing panorama, others are prowling round exploring the ship, some of the more boisterous are frolicking about, puppies chasing their own metaphorical tails, others are silent, watching the cloud-shadows drifting across the landscape and weaving an ever-varying pattern of light and shade over the colours of hillside and loch. $ * * * - 3 - The hills are receding into the distance; we are on our return journey and the trip is almost over. It is a time for reflection, for letting the mind drift pleasantly over the experiences of the day. As thoughts drift on, the scene changes before me. This is no longer Hamburg ^children. The deck is more open but more crowded. The children look different from Glasgow children, the boys with close-cropped heads and sun-tanned skin, many of them wear­ ing only shirt and shorts, the girls with fair hair dangling in plaits or clasped tightly at the nape of the neck, with dresses rough and serviceable, mainly blue in colour, There is a constant chatter of talk and of nonsense, an occasional burst of laughter. From the far corner of the deck corns the strumming of a uke* almost submerged by lusty young voices singing about the *lieb* Vaterland. ^(This is no longer the ’Queen Alexandra* sailing up the Glyde. The brown waters which are swirling pa3t are the waters of the Elbe: It is July, 1933, and I am returning to Hamburg from Moorw&rder Day Colony on the Hugo von Basedow, with 1,000 Hamburg children). It is an interesting parallel - the excursion from Glasgow to Ardgoil, the excursion from Hamburg to MoorwSrderJ The comparison is tempting, but what contrasts it reveals! Hamburg has two Day Colonies for school children, one at Moorwlrder, forty minutes by steamer up the Elbe, **4- with full accommodation for 2,000 children, the other at Xohlbrand, across the El he hy ferry from the centre of the city, with full accommodation for 3,000. During the sum* mer vacation, three groups of almost 2,000 children each go to MoorwSrder for consecutive fortnightly periods, travelling hy steamer morning and evening, spending the whole day at MoorwSrder. Similarly for Kohlbrand. Each child pays roughly ten shillings for his fortnight»s stay, the money being collected in instalments at the schools* For poorer children the charge is reduced, according to home circumstances, and in many eases It Is purely nominal, fhe colonies are subsidised directly from city funds so that the charges made are no index of actual expenses. Now note this point,* during school time these colonies are visited by olass^groups, visiting as class-groups with their teacher, who is aided in supervision and in Instruction by the resident staff. In addition to these colonies there are the *school- homo*', houses in the country which have been established by Hamburg schools, individually or in groups, for the reception of school children, visiting with their teachers in classes and staying for a continuous period of a fortnight or even longer. Hamburg has about thirty school-homes, each capable of accomm­ odating from thirty to a hundred children, or even more. During school time the school-home is to all intents and purposes an an­ nexe of the school. Here for instance is a school-home belonging ’• J - & • to a secondary school* each year nine of the nineteen school classes visit it for a fortnight during school time, not fod a holiday but for purposes of education, 2?he period of school vacation is kept as a separate holiday period for selected pupils* and la not arranged on a olaas basis, She classes which do not visit this school-home usually go to sons other school-home for a fortnight during school time, or, in the case of the highest classes, go on excursion further afield, probably staying at Youth Hostels, of which there are literally thousands throughout Germany, In Hamburg the value of country excursions for city children was early recognised. Sven long before the War-r activities of this: kind werts organised-oh q u i W scale. From the very beginning it was an educational exper­ iment, conducted directly through the schools, or indirectly through teacher!1 organisations, and its Influence through­ out the Hamburg school system makes a profoundly interesting Study, Activities of a similar kind are slowly but surely coming into their own in this country, mainly in the guise of holiday camps or school journeys. It is vitally Important at this stage that all who have any responsibility in education should see to it that this incipient movement is directed not merely to recreation and holiday relaxation but first and last to the service of education.

PBEFACE : BIBIIOQBAPHY. To uphold the thesis that the Youth Movement was an important influence in German education we first investigate the significance of the youth Movement as a whole, then explore its significance more particularly for education. We "begin with a discussion of the Youth Movement as a product of the abnormal social situation which obtained in Germany at the end of last century, tracing its emergence and expansion in the Wandervogel and kindred youth organisations. In this first phase, the youth associations were the vehicle of the Youth Movement. Though mainly outside the educational system these associations exerted considerable influence on education as they developed, through the methods and activities they served to popularise and the outlook they expressed. More­ over they came into close and intimate contact with other in­ fluences making for social change, with the hostels movement, with the growth of settlements and other nuclei of reform opin­ ion, with reform movements in education, and all these combined to bring tremendous pressure to bear on educational policy and on educational practice throughout Germany. But as the youth associations became assimilated into the social organism they became less representative of the spontaneous interests of the young people who comprised their membership, less genuinely part of the Youth Movement.

  • Governing Through Nature: Camps and Youth Movements in Interwar Germany and the United States
    Author manuscript, published in "Cultural Geographies 15, 2 (2008) 173-205" DOI : 10.1177/1474474007087498 cultural geographies 2008 15: 173–205 Governing through nature: camps and youth movements in interwar Germany and the United States Kenny Cupers Harvard University Focusing on youth camp development in Germany and the United States during the interwar period, this article argues not only that such camps played a crucial role in the ways in which national societies dealt with their youth, but also that their history forces us to rethink relations between place-making, nationhood, and modern governing. First, the article addresses the historiography of youth movements in relation to current debates about spatiality, nationalism, and governmentality. The main part of the article examines organized camps, in particular by the German Bünde, the Hitlerjugend (Hitler Youth), and the American Boy Scouts, focusing on their transition from relatively spontaneous activities of particular social movements, to objects of professional design, national-scale planning and intricate management in the interwar period. This development demonstrates how in the seemingly trivial activity of camping, nationalism is interwoven with the project of conducting youth through contact with nature. Despite divergent contexts and political ideologies, youth camp development in this period constituted a set of practices in which the natural environment was deployed to improve the nation’s youth, and to eventually reproduce them as governable subjects. Keywords: camps • governmentality • interwar Germany • interwar United States • youth movements Introduction n 11 October 1913, more than two thousand young Germans came together on the ␤ peer-00572018, version 1 - Mar 2011 OHohe Mei ner hills near Kassel to set up camp.

  • Youth and the State in the German Democratic Republic
    “Who Has the Youth, Has the Future”: Youth and the State in the German Democratic Republic By Jeff Robson University of Calgary The 1949 foundation of the German Democratic Republic (GDR) from Soviet-occupied territory in East Germany ushered in a new era. Under the ruling Socialist Unity Party (SED), the East German state began a concerted effort to instil its brand of German socialism into the hearts and minds of citizens previously under National Socialist domination. The most targeted demographic of the East German population was its youth, as the older German generations were considered lost to the taint of Nazism. In contrast, the youth of the country presented an ideal opportunity to create the model socialist citizen.1 In its ambition to inculcate younger generations with pro-Soviet, German socialist values, the state became an omnipresent force in the education and socialization of the nation’s children. The state accomplished this through incorporating strict control and Party ideology into both the country’s public education system and the Freie Deutsche Jugend (FDJ), the foremost youth movement in the GDR. Against a backdrop of mounting Cold War tensions, the ideological mobilization of youth in the German Democratic Republic created conditions to raise the ideal socialist citizen, in order to secure the health and survival of the state. The policies and actions of the Freie Deutsche Jugend youth movement and the East German education system were designed to engender the individual youth with class-consciousness, present socialism as a youthful ideology with no alternative, and mobilize the state’s youth in the preservation and defence of East German socialism against the capitalist West.

  • The Experience of the German Soldier on the Eastern Front
    AUTONOMY IN THE GREAT WAR: THE EXPERIENCE OF THE GERMAN SOLDIER ON THE EASTERN FRONT A THESIS IN History Presented to the Faculty of the University Of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of The requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS By Kevin Patrick Baker B.A. University of Kansas, 2007 Kansas City, Missouri 2012 ©2012 KEVIN PATRICK BAKER ALL RIGHTS RESERVED AUTONOMY IN THE GREAT WAR: THE EXPERIENCE OF THE GERMAN SOLDIER ON THE EASTERN FRONT Kevin Patrick Baker, Candidate for the Master of Arts Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2012 ABSTRACT From 1914 to 1919, the German military established an occupation zone in the territory of present day Poland, Lithuania, and Latvia. Cultural historians have generally focused on the role of German soldiers as psychological and physical victims trapped in total war that was out of their control. Military historians have maintained that these ordinary German soldiers acted not as victims but as perpetrators causing atrocities in the occupied lands of the Eastern Front. This paper seeks to build on the existing scholarship on the soldier’s experience during the Great War by moving beyond this dichotomy of victim vs. perpetrator in order to describe the everyday existence of soldiers. Through the lens of individual selfhood, this approach will explore the gray areas that saturated the experience of war. In order to gain a better understanding of how ordinary soldiers appropriated individual autonomy in total war, this master’s thesis plans to use an everyday-life approach by looking at individual soldiers’ behaviors underneath the canopy of military hegemony.

  • Experimental Schools in Germany
    "1~1u German Educational Reconstruction No.1 Experimental Schools in Germany by MINNA SPECHT and ALFONS ROSENBERG One Shilling and Sixpence net THIS partlphlet is published by a body known as German Educational Reconstruction, or "G.E.R.". This organisation came into existence in February 1943, when a number of British persons decided to offer some German educationists in this country an opportunity of keeping abreast of educational thought and practice until the time when they would return to their own country and assist with its reconstruction. This British group discovered that a small group of Germans were already at work on the same problem. The two bodies decided to co-operate to form G.E.R., which now consists of a Board, predominantly British, and a Standing Committee, pre­ dominantly German. G.E.R. is an independent body. It has no outside affiliations and is not working under official auspices. Both the Board and the Standing Committee consist of persons of various shades of political thought .. The whole structure of G.E.R. is held together by a common purpose: to contribute to the building up of a democratic system of education in Germany. The authors of this pamphlet are alone responsible for its contents. The responsi­ bility of G.E.R. as a body is limited to sponsoring the publication.
