Community and culture in post-soviet cuba

"This book re-examines the role of the intellectual within the revolutionary project in post-Soviet Cuban culture. Through close critical readings of a representative set of contemporary Cuban novels and works of visual art, the author argues that friendship and gender, rather than ideology, account for the intellectuals' fidelity to the truth of the Revolution. This volume demonstrates that masculine sociability is the key to understanding the longevity of Cuba's socialist regime. It also examines in detail the sociology of cultural administration -- production, dissemination, reception, and interpretation -- of intellectual labor in Cuba. Furthermore, it maps the emergent ethical paradigms that allow Cuban intellectuals to envision a post-revolutionary future"--

  • "Following the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the globalization of Cuban culture, along with the bankruptcy of the state, partly modified the terms of intellectual engagement. However, no significant change took place at the political level. In Community and Culture in Post-Soviet Cuba, De Ferrari looks into the extraordinary survival of the Revolution by focusing on the personal, political and aesthetic social pacts that determined the configuration of the socialist state. Through close critical readings of a representative set of contemporary Cuban novels and work."@en
