This book is the product of collaborations between Cuban and
European social scientists. Without ignoring the devastating impact
of the US embargo, it shows that Cuba's grave economic impasse is
endogenously rooted in the contradictions of its peculiar version
of state socialism. These contradictions led to a strongly
idealistic and egalitarian bias in economic and social policies,
implying a severe underestimation of the objective constraints
imposed by the relevance of the law of value in the domain of
social relations of production and exchange. Two of their most
severe manifestations of the crisis of Cuba's traditional state
socialist model are the parlous state of the agricultural sector
and the emergence of multiple and novel forms of income inequality.
