Cuba: heading for a new development and political model – an introduction

Vegard Bye, Bert Hoffmann and Laurence Whitehead

Third World Quarterly, 2016, vol. 37, issue 9, 1661-1665

Abstract: Cuba, this iconic revolutionary island which has brought so much hope to the Third World and, at one point, worry for a nuclear World War III, is going through a process of change never seen since Fidel Castro led his revolutionary forces to triumph around New Year’s of 1959. Yet, 10 years into the change process, led by the younger Castro Raúl (now 85), nobody can really forecast where the country will end up in socio-economic and political terms. In this TWQ subsection, two economists and three political scientists – two Cubans and three European Cuba watchers – analyse the reforms and their possible outcome.
