Description

This study is part of a research program about cultural indicators in Sweden, 'Kulturindikatorer: Svensk symbolmiljö 1945-1975'. Primarily the study is about the imagination of advertisements, but the study also deals with the interplay between the content of the advertisement and other parts of the world of ideas in society, and between the content of advertisement and the material development. The content analyse is divided into three parts; the description of people in advertisements (sex, age, occupation, relations, etc.); environments occurring in the advertisements; statements about the product, and rhetoric used to influence buying the product.
