About this title

Synopsis

Cuba Facing Forward brings together a diverse collection of Cuban, Cuban-American, and non-Cuban voices to provide critical insights into the urban and economic-development challenges and opportunities faced by Cuba at this moment in time. Featuring a foreword by Belmont Freeman and new essays and research from David White, Violaine Jolivet, Mario Gonzalez-Corzo, Daniel Gallagher, Ted Henken, Anya Brickman Raredon, Sujatha Fernandes, Lucas Spiro, Victor Silva and Katherine Aronson Ensign, Manuel Gonzalez Herrera and Mercedes de los Ángeles Rodríguez, Vaughn Thomas Horn, Victor Deupi, and Carmelo Mesa-Lago. “Cuba Facing Forward offers arresting fresh perspectives on twenty-first century Cuba from some unlikely sources, points of epiphanies discerned in the course of commonplace facets of daily life.” - Louis A. Perez, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill “Offers a rare combination of papers from different disciplines. A common conclusion is that Cuba is changing in many important ways and faces numerous challenges. An unconventional volume that could provide much needed nuances to those interested in the fascinating country Cuba is.” - Ricardo Torres, Universidad de La Habana Cuba
