520 $aWhat does Cuban socialism look like from the inside out? Why has Cuban socialism survived while socialism in many other countries has not? What were Cuba's leaders and people up to while our attention was focused on the fall of East European socialism? How do the Cubans plan to cope with the "new world order"? Marc Frank combines his intimate knowledge of Cuba with over a hundred on-the-spot interviews to answer these and many other burning questions about Cuba. In the process he brings Cuba to life. Marc Frank's easy narrative style invites us to go with him as he explores Havana, travels through Cuba's farm lands and into its mountains; as he visits Cuban factories, farms, schools, hospitals and homes. We are introduced to Cubans of every type and given a unique opportunity to understand their hopes, fears, and dreams as they struggle to save their country and shape its future.
520 8 $aCuba Looks To the Year 2000 is must reading for understanding modern Cuba. It is also an enjoyable, provocative contribution to today's debates about socialism - its strengths, problems, and future.
