Moral storytelling about urban public life in Odesa in the 1920s is at the center of attention. A key social space is in focus: streets and corners as spaces and as concepts. And a particular storyteller is central: the well-known and yet biographically mysterious feuilletonist for the city's evening newspaper, “Al. Svetlov.” Soviet journalists, like Soviet reality, were expected to offer ideological clarity: a morally unambiguous and teleologically straight story about the death of the past and the birth of a bright and healthy new world. But such temporal and moral (and thus political) consistency was elusive—in the urban spaces where “vestiges” of the old persisted, and in their telling, as observers found it difficult to sustain an unwavering and unambiguous moral orientation. The article asks also how minor and subordinated individuals understood their own lives, suggesting an orientation other than delinquency and pathology.

This article deconstructs the politics of the home efficiency movement organization Komitet do spraw Gospodarstwa Domowego (hereafter the KGD), or the Home Economics Committee in late state socialist Poland. While doing so we focus on the organization's agenda of reshaping the lives of rural housewives from being irrational and backward to that of the normative social role of a rational nowoczesna gospodyni (modern rural housewife) by providing them with the knowledge needed to efficiently use home appliances. We argue that the KGD positioned itself as an expert group between the communist state apparatus and society as an intermediary actor that assisted in carrying out the state's social policy of improving living standards. We investigate how this organization exercised its authority through its power/knowledge as an expert group, and its strategy of enrolling other actors in its campaigns. Our article draws from archival documents of the KGD, the content analysis of its periodical, and that of several other relevant popular and expert publications.
本文解构了家庭效率运动组织Komitet do spraw Gospodarstwa Domowego(以下简称KGD),或国家社会主义后期波兰的家庭经济委员会的政治。在这样做的同时,我们将重点放在该组织的议程上,即通过向农村家庭主妇提供有效使用家用电器所需的知识,将农村家庭主妇的生活从非理性和落后的转变为理性的nowoczesna gospodyni(现代农村家庭主妇)的规范社会角色。我们认为,KGD将自己定位为共产主义国家机器和社会之间的一个专家小组,作为一个中介角色,帮助实施国家提高生活水平的社会政策。我们调查了该组织如何通过其作为专家组的权力/知识行使其权威,以及其招募其他参与者参与其活动的策略。我们的文章借鉴了KGD的档案文件,其期刊的内容分析,以及其他一些相关的流行和专家出版物。
