Abstract
The research aims to promote a reflexion on the family as a priviledge observation place through which it is possible to narrate the history of the 50’s (1946-62).
Particular attention has been attached to the family connexion system with the political institutions: the universe of two major political parties (Dc and Pci), with mass-society and mass-culture, in a reality such as the italian one where the private and domestic space represents not only the center of the political and religious thought but also a main factor for the construction of social, gendre and generational identities.
The research uses audiovisual materials as main sources; produced by public and government agenzie and also by big parties and militant base. The social and cultural dimension of the research is therefore combined with the institutional one, in order to point out the role of the family in the collective mentality of the time and also in the configuration of the political system of the first Republic. In an interdisciplinary type of analysis, the study trie sto reconstruct the different reppresentations of the familiar world provided through propaganda, while deconstructing its main languages.
