Synopsis

With the fall of communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, Cuba's hold on socialism seems tenuous, yet it remains dedicated to revolutionary goals. This book analyzes the nature of participatory democracy in a revolutionary context, examines Cuba's economic prospects in a rapidly changing international environment, and offers a series of studies of the texture of everyday life in the Western Hemisphere's only socialist country.
