This book demonstrates the ways in which the kitchen--the centerpiece of domesticity and consumerism--was deployed as a recurring motif in the ideological and propaganda battles of the Cold War. Beginning with the famous Nixon-Khrushchev kitchen debate, Baldwin shows how Nixon turned the kitchen into a space of exception, while contemporary writers, artists, and activists depicted it as a site of cultural resistance. Focusing on a wide variety of literature and media from the United States and the Soviet Union, Baldwin reveals how the binary logic at work in Nixon's discourse--setting U.S. freedom against Soviet totalitarianism--erased the histories of slavery, gender subordination, colonialism, and racial genocide. The Racial Imaginary of the Cold War Kitchen treats the kitchen as symptomatic of these erasures, connecting issues of race, gender, and social difference across national boundaries. This rich and rewarding study--embracing the literature, film, and photography of the era--will appeal to a broad spectrum of scholars"--From publisher's website. 330 2 $a"A study of the ways in which the kitchen was used as a recurring motif in the ideological and propaganda battles of the Cold War, particularly in regard to issues of feminism and race"--Provided by publisher. 410 0$aRe-Mapping the Transnational: A Dartmouth Series in American Studies 606 $aCold War$xPolitical aspects 606 $aPropaganda$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xRelations$zSoviet Union 607 $aSoviet Union$xRelations$zUnited States 615 0$aCold War$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aPropaganda$xHistory 676 $a327.73047 700 $aBaldwin$b Kate A.$01692875 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821074003321 996 $aThe racial imaginary of the Cold War kitchen$94070277 997 $aUNINA
