Cuba: room for hope ?

Abstract

The author presents a general view of some conditions previous the 1959 Cuban revolution; then he remarks the course and the achievement of the revolution in different fields. We found here and exhaustive critic balance of the real transformation at the eighty and ninety decades after the collapse of the eastern European countries, where the author remarks many of the measures taken by the Cuban government to face the economic crisis. He also refers, from a sociological analysis, the new spaces that have been generated at the social framework, and at the same time the appearance of visible inequalities and deep breaks. When the author makes some questions like why socialist Cuba continues alive? or gives the opinion that the country become stagnant but stable, he is trying to show considerations on theoretical assumptions offering some answers and also some possible landscape to be developed.
