Summary:
"Cette fois, c'est la révolution pour de vrai" : tels furent les premiers mots prononcés publiquement par Fidel Castro à Santiago de Cuba, après la fuite du général Fulgencio Batista. Le nouveau leader entendait faire table rase du passé, et s'employa d'emblée à produire une idéologie et à refondre le droit. Soulignant l'inachèvement du projet national, son gouvernement put compter sur des appuis aux motifs divergents. Il composa avec des logiques d'action concurrentes : épurations, démonstrations de force, stratégies traditionnelles de captation de prébendes, mobilisations étudiante et syndicale, activisme catholique-réformiste, initiatives citoyennes, mais aussi repli sur la sphère privée... C'est ainsi que, peu à peu, dans un contexte de guerre froide, se constituèrent les règles et se dessinèrent les stratégies individuelles qui fournirent un ancrage à une nouvelle forme de vie en commun. Cette enquête portant sur la période 1952-1989 associe des approches philosophique, sociologique et anthropologique pour situer le régime castriste par rapport au nationalisme cubain, aux populismes latino-américains et aux expériences totalitaires du XXe siècle.

Summary:
In this absorbing history, Jon C. Teaford traces the dramatic evolution of American metropolitan life. At the end of World War II, the cities of the Northeast and the Midwest were bustling, racially and economically integrated areas frequented by suburban and urban dwellers alike. Yet since 1945, these cities have become peripheral to the lives of most Americans. “Edge cities” are now the dominant centers of production and consumption in post-suburban America. Characterized by sprawling freeways, corporate parks, and homogeneous malls and shopping centers, edge cities have transformed the urban landscape of the United States.
