The boundary between Cuba and the United States has become more and
more porous, as have those with Latin America and the Caribbean.
Never in the past half-century has Cuba's leadership or its social
and political fabric been so exposed to the influence of the
outside world. In this book, an all-star cast of experts critically
address the recent past and present in U.S.-Cuban relations in
their full complexity and subtlety to develop a perspective on the
evolution of the conflict and an inventory of forms of cooperation.
This much needed approach provides a way to answer the questions
"what has been . . .?" and "what is . . .?" while also thinking
seriously about "what if . . .?" To illustrate the most significant
areas of U.S.-Cuban relations in the contemporary era, this newly
updated edition of Debating U.S.-Cuban Relations adds six more
themes to the study of this complex relation: political, security,
economic, and cultural/academic issues; the triangular relations of
the United States, Cuba, and Europe; and the politics of Cuban
migration/emigration. Each topic is represented by perspectives
from both Cuban and non-Cuban scholars, leading to a resource rich
in insight and a model of transnational dialogue. The future course
of U.S.-Cuban relations will likely be more complex than in the
past, not only because of the matrix of factors involved but also
because of the number of actors. Such a multiplicity of domestic,
regional, and global factors is unique; it includes the rise to
power of new administrations in both countries since 2008. Raul
Castro became president of Cuba in February 2008 and Barack Obama
was inaugurated president of the United States in January 2009. And
it will feature the inauguration of a new president of the United
States in January 2017 and a new president of Cuba, likely in
February 2018.
