This dissertation investigates the interplay between ideology and everyday objects through an examination of domestic advice and advertisements found in Cuban popular magazines during the 1950s and 1960s. By engaging new sources of evidence, this study explores the relationship between politics and popular print media during the period from 1950 to 1970, when Cuba transitioned from a quasi-capitalist nation, inextricably linked to the United States, to a socialist nation isolated from the United States economically and culturally during the revolutionary era. Domestic advice writers and advertisers cast images of domestic interiors and objects for the home in juxtaposing visions of ideal domesticity, one marked by the possibility for individual expression and upward mobility through capitalist democracy, and the other founded on the ideal of equality and self-empowerment through socialism. In addition, this study explores the interplay between modernity and modernist aesthetics at mid-century. Both before and after the Cuban Revolution, a modernist aesthetic was promoted in popular print media as expressive of the prevailing ideology. The material world of the everyday glorified and idealized in popular magazines served as the most vivid symbols of modernity for Cubans during the 1950s. And in the revolutionary period, the Castro regime effectively used the language commonly employed in U.S. advertising practices to promote the new ideals associated with socialism during the 1960s. This dissertation illuminates the ways in which ideology is both explicitly and implicitly propagated in popular media, and it reinforces the idea that design played an integral role in the dissemination of ideology at mid-century.
