Nearly thirty years have passed since the United States first
attempted to overthrow the fledgling Castro government. Despite
enormous changes in the hemisphere, significant developments in the
nature of Cuba's international relations, and an end to the cold
war consensus in the United States that quietly sanctioned
interference in and obstruction of Third World politics, U.S.
policy toward Cuba has changed very little: It still embodies the
failed dream of isolating Cuba and destroying the Cuban revolution.
In From Confrontation to Negotiation: U.S. Relations with Cuba,
Philip Brenner provides a thoughtful overview of U.S.-Cuban
relations since 1898, with an emphasis on the past ten years.
Assumptions, goals, and continuities in U.S. policy are
highlighted. He then offers a clear picture of the issues that
divide the two countries and around which any discussions for a
normalization of relations would likely turn. Could discussions
occur? Is a call for a less hostile relationship between the United
States and Cuba politically feasible? What are the chances that
Cuba and the United States can actually work out an accommodation?
Dr. Brenner analyzes the domestic political factors in each country
that shape policy and that might present possibilities for serious
discussion. He then proposes a workable alternative Cuban policy
for the United States that takes into account the fundamental
concerns of both countries. The policy proposal is related to the
framework adopted by Policy Alternatives for the Caribbean and
Central America (PACCA).
