Description “The air age thus provided postwar Germany with the technological means to reinvent itself. Airmindedness was not a utilitarian code of conduct that derived logically from the frightening realities of air war. Rather, it added up to an ideologically inflected diagnosis of danger and opportunity by which the Nazis could build the national community. Focusing on the idea of airmindedness, I will examine how the sites of technological vulnerability after World War I provided congenial locations for political experimentation in Germany and explore more generally the links between 20th-century technology and the authoritarian state.”
