Title: Special Topics in Public Affairs: Arts and Cultural Policy in Contemporary Cuba
Description: This course will address the creation, promotion and consumption of art and culture in Cuba--and will analyze the policy framework within which this takes place. It will examine the goals of the revolutionary government with respect to literacy and cultural democracy and will review how these objectives have been realized through changing circumstances since 1959. It will ask how cultural policy relates to diversity, emigration, tourism, the preservation of heritage, and the fraught histories of imperialism and nationalism.
Prerequisites: This course will be offered in Cuba to participants in the Princeton program in Havana.
Professors: Edmund J. Hull, Shanti Pillai
