This volume traces the developments in Cuba following the fall of the Berlin Wall and the subsequent definitive demise of state socialism. Topics covered include: the reasons for the persistence of 'the Cuban model,' and an examination of the interaction between elite and non-elite actors, as well as between domestic and international forces.

'This is a work of great sophistication and scholarship. The editors have brought together extraordinary talent to examine historical, political and societal issues in a way that is original and stimulating.' - Hal Klepak, Royal Military College of Canada
