Abstract

Abstract:After the stock market crashed in 1929, financially strapped students left high school and college, joining the ranks of approximately five million unemployed young adults. To bring students back to the classroom through a work-study program and to give employment and teach marketable skills to "out-of-school" youth twenty-four years old and younger, President Roosevelt created the National Youth Administration in 1935 with Executive Order 7086. The National Youth Administration was sometimes compared to the Civilian Conservation Corps, but there were notable differences. The National Youth Administration included both men and women, enrolled males too young for the Civilian Conservation Corps, and incorporated work projects similar to those undertaken by the Works Progress Administration. This article focuses on the Kansas experience to illustrate and examine the National Youth Administration's national policies, implementation, relationship to war work during World War II, and long-term legacy.

堪萨斯州的新政国家青年管理局

摘要：1929年股市崩盘后，经济拮据的学生离开了高中和大学，加入了大约500万失业年轻人的行列。为了通过勤工俭学计划让学生重返课堂，为24岁及以下的“失学”青年提供就业机会并教授市场技能，罗斯福总统于1935年通过第7086号行政命令成立了国家青年管理局。国家青年管理局有时被比作平民保护团，但存在显著差异。国家青年管理局包括男性和女性，招募年龄太小的男性加入平民保护团，并纳入了与工程进度管理局类似的工作项目。本文以堪萨斯州的经验为重点，阐述和审视国家青年管理局的国家政策、实施、与二战期间战争工作的关系以及长期遗产。

期刊介绍： In 1981, noted historian Frederick C. Luebke edited the first issue of Great Plains Quarterly. In his editorial introduction, he wrote The Center for Great Plains Studies has several purposes in publishing the Great Plains Quarterly. Its general purpose is to use this means to promote appreciation of the history and culture of the people of the Great Plains and to explore their contemporary social, economic, and political problems. The Center seeks further to stimulate research in the Great Plains region by providing a publishing outlet for scholars interested in the past, present, and future of the region."
