Social Sciences - History / National Socialism | | Dutch term or phrase: van bodem en volk losgeslagen | | �Achter ons liggen straks de steeds leeger, ijler en kortademiger wordende lyrische dichters, de burgerlijk-psychologische romans, de op primitieve mentaliteit ge�nspireerde rhythmen en [�] voor haast niemand verstaanbare muziek. Achter ons liggen straks de van bodem en volk losgeslagen architectonische constructies [�] en de kubistische bedenksels van de erfgenamen van Vermeer en Jan Steen. Achter ons ligt het �Nederlandsch tooneel� zonder Nederlandsche stukken. |

| | utterly foreign to our soil and our people | Explanation:
"losgeslagen van" betekent voor mij "totaal niet meer eigen aan/ niet meer horend bij"
In the not too distant future we will leave behind ourselves architectonic forms utterly foreign to our soil and our people and Vermeer and Jan Steen's heirs' cubist fabrications
Er is hier trouwens een NSB'er aan het woord: T. Goedewaagen. Ik dacht hoe kunnen nazi's nu dingen aanhalen als Jan Steen en Vermeer en achter ons ligt straks het “Nederlandsch tooneel” zonder Nederlandsche stukken. |

20 mins confidence:   | van bodem en volk losgeslagen (see context) removed from foundation and people
Explanation:
Interpreteer 'bodem' als foundation (basis, fundamentals) (fig. grondslag). Eventueel 'sanity'
Of misschien nog iets anders met 'removed from'
E.g: removed from sanity
"the War on Drug Paraphernalia is even more removed from sanity."
http://blogcritics.org/politics/article/war-on-sanity/
"Thus it is not surprising that military sacrament is couched in the language of service to country, patriotism, and other noble causes that are as divorced from reality as the President is removed from sanity. "

"The new aristocracy of blood and soil" (Neuadel aus Blut und Boden, Darre, 1930)
"Removed from soil and blood" then, maybe.
The keyword I am trying to translate here is "removed" - rather than the nazi terminology in which I am not well versed.

Forgot the reference:
Darre's Ideology
He was the author of Das Bauerntum als Lebensquell der Nordischen Rasse (The Peasantry as the Life Source of the Nordic Race; 1928) and Neuadel aus Blut und Boden (The New Aristocracy of Blood and Soil; 1930), in which he opposed further urbanization and industrialization and developed a Lebensraumprogramm (Program for Living Space). The peasant was at the center of Darre's ideology, and he believed in a mythical connection between the blood of the German race and the soil (Blut und Boden, or "blood and soil"; Blubo).

11 hrs confidence: | van bodem en volk losgeslagen (see context) detached
Explanation:
detached from the base and the peope
or :"loose from":
or :"unconnected to": or :"unassociated with":
We are talking here about "archtectonic constructions",
I believe, the verb has to suit the noun
