Paperback. Cuba Material es un archivo de la cultura material cubana, y de las practicas y significados asociados con esta. Es tambien una coleccion de objetos, documentos y vestuario producido, comercializado o utilizado en Cuba durante la Guerra Fria. Este archivo surgio del interes en documentar y preservar significados y practicas relacionados con la cultura material de la vida cotidiana durante una de las decadas mas peculiares de la historia de Cuba: los anos setenta. Cuba Material es un proyecto de Maria A. Cabrera Arus, ganador en 2014 del New Challenge Award for Social Innovation otorgado por New School for Social Research. Las fotos del libro son de Xavier Tavera. Sin promover una falsa nostalgia por la epoca sovietica, los anos setenta o "los buenos tiempos de la Revolucion", la coleccion Cuba Material nos invita a reflexionar sobre como era la vida en Cuba durante el auge del socialismo de Estado, al tiempo que problematiza o cuestiona ese otro tipo de nostalgia predominante y hegemonica por el pasado anterior a 1959. Con independencia de los grandes acontecimientos politicos o sociales y de las expectativas politicas o ideologicas que tuvieran los ciudadanos en cuanto a como debian vivir sus vidas -que libros debian leer y a quien debian escuchar en sus receptores de radio fabricados en la URSS-, los objetos de esta coleccion nos obligan a pensar tambien en los usos alternativos que la gente les dio para expresar su individualidad. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
