Motorization: Focuses on the motorcycle not the car as the most important cultural commodity of early motorization in Germany. Gender and Consumption: Focuses on masculinity not only femininity in exploring how motorization as a practice of consumption shaped gender. Extends and amends standard interpretations of class and gender in the Weimar Republic. Unique archive of sources and interdisciplinary approach: From official juridical records to popular culture, takes a "mobility studies" approach to the history of motorization during the Weimar Republic.

Paperback. Zustand: New. During the high days of modernization fever, among the many disorienting changes Germans experienced in the Weimar Republic was an unprecedented mingling of consumption and identity: increasingly, what one bought signaled who one was. Exemplary of this volatile dynamic was the era's burgeoning motorcycle culture. With automobiles largely a luxury of the upper classes, motorcycles complexly symbolized masculinity and freedom, embodying a widespread desire to embrace progress as well as profound anxieties over the course of social transformation. Through its richly textured account of the motorcycle as both icon and commodity, The Devil's Wheels teases out the intricacies of gender and class in the Weimar years.
