ABSTRACT

During the 1950s and early 1960s, civil defence sought to anticipate the next war and ensure the survival of civil society. Authorities had to adjust to developments in both military and communication technologies continuously. The article studies the visual culture of Danish civil defence by zooming in on the entanglements of technology, visuality, narrative and function. The author argues that this visual culture is characterised by the practice and visual technique of pre-enactment. Having developed this concept, the article analyses the projection of civil defence in recruitment films, educational filmstrips and public information aimed at mass audiences.

预演下一场战争:早期核时代丹麦民防的视觉文化

摘要

在 1950 年代和 1960 年代初期,民防试图预测下一场战争并确保公民社会的生存。当局必须不断适应军事和通信技术的发展。本文通过放大技术、视觉、叙事和功能的纠葛来研究丹麦民防的视觉文化。作者认为,这种视觉文化的特点是预先制定的实践和视觉技术。在发展了这一概念之后,本文分析了针对大众观众的招聘影片、教育幻灯片和公共信息中的民防投影。
