  • Cuban Leadership Overview, Apr 2009
    16 April 2009 OpenȱSourceȱCenter Report Cuban Leadership Overview, Apr 2009 Raul Castro has overhauled the leadership of top government bodies, especially those dealing with the economy, since he formally succeeded his brother Fidel as president of the Councils of State and Ministers on 24 February 2008. Since then, almost all of the Council of Ministers vice presidents have been replaced, and more than half of all current ministers have been appointed. The changes have been relatively low-key, but the recent ousting of two prominent figures generated a rare public acknowledgement of official misconduct. Fidel Castro retains the position of Communist Party first secretary, and the party leadership has undergone less turnover. This may change, however, as the Sixth Party Congress is scheduled to be held at the end of this year. Cuba's top military leadership also has experienced significant turnover since Raul -- the former defense minister -- became president. Names and photos of key officials are provided in the graphic below; the accompanying text gives details of the changes since February 2008 and current listings of government and party officeholders.

  • The Executive Survey General Information and Guidelines
    The Executive Survey General Information and Guidelines Dear Country Expert, In this section, we distinguish between the head of state (HOS) and the head of government (HOG). • The Head of State (HOS) is an individual or collective body that serves as the chief public representative of the country; his or her function could be purely ceremonial. • The Head of Government (HOG) is the chief officer(s) of the executive branch of government; the HOG may also be HOS, in which case the executive survey only pertains to the HOS. • The executive survey applies to the person who effectively holds these positions in practice. • The HOS/HOG pair will always include the effective ruler of the country, even if for a period this is the commander of foreign occupying forces. • The HOS and/or HOG must rule over a significant part of the country’s territory. • The HOS and/or HOG must be a resident of the country — governments in exile are not listed. • By implication, if you are considering a semi-sovereign territory, such as a colony or an annexed territory, the HOS and/or HOG will be a person located in the territory in question, not in the capital of the colonizing/annexing country. • Only HOSs and/or HOGs who stay in power for 100 consecutive days or more will be included in the surveys. • A country may go without a HOG but there will be no period listed with only a HOG and no HOS. • If a HOG also becomes HOS (interim or full), s/he is moved to the HOS list and removed from the HOG list for the duration of their tenure.

  • Cuba and U.S. Blockade
    How Cuba has survived the U.S. embargo/blockade Essay and book review by Tony Wood, in London Review of Books, July 1, 2021 Reviewing: * The Cubans: Ordinary Lives in Extraordinary Times, by Anthony DePalma, published by Bodley Head, 368 pp., 2021 * We Are Cuba! How a Revolutionary People Have Survived in a Post-Soviet World, by Helen Yaffe, Yale U Press, 363 pp., 2020 On April 16, Raúl Castro stepped down as first secretary of the Cuban Communist Party. Much of the coverage focused on the fact that, for the first time in more than sixty years, none of the island’s top political posts is occupied by a Castro. This was a generational transition: the current president and first secretary of the party, Miguel Díaz-Canel, to whom Raúl handed over the reins of government three years ago, wasn’t even born when the 1959 revolution took place. Soon the system established by Fidel Castro’s 26 July Movement will have outlasted its founders. Its longevity has confounded repeated predictions of its imminent demise, and should have put paid to the abiding image of it as a Cold War relic. After all, Cuba’s distinctive state- socialist model has now lasted longer in the post-Cold War world than it did before 1989. Yet the image of Cuba as stranded in a previous epoch stubbornly persists, distorting outsiders’ view of a state that has all along been changing at its own pace. Cuba’s modern history is a famously polarising subject, with even simple word choices signalling opposed political sympathies.

Centeno Miranda Department of Politics University of Sheffield This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2016 ii To Our America Acknowledgements The completion of this PhD would not have been possible without the support of many people. First of all, I would like to thank Steve Ludlam for all his advice and constant support. It has been a pleasure and a privilege working with him. I also would like to thank the feedback I received on my research from colleagues in the Annual Conference of the Society of Latin American Studies (2012 and 2014), in the Annual Conference of the Cuba Research Forum (in 2013 and 2014), in the Annual Postgraduate Colloquium of the Department of Politics of the University of Sheffield (2014), in the Annual Congress of CLACSO’s working group Latin America: governments, movements, and continuities (2014), and in the Annual Conference of the Latin American Studies Association (2015).

I also learned a lot about Cuba’s economic reform in conversations I had with economists of the Centre of Studies of the Cuban Economy (CEEC, in Spanish) of the University of Havana. Thanks to Omar E. Pérez Villanueva for welcoming me. Thanks to Liam Stanley for his savvy feedback on the first draft of this thesis.

  • Cuba's Top Leaders Congratulate Viet Nam on the 75Th Anniversary of Its Independence
    Cuba's top leaders congratulate Viet Nam on the 75th anniversary of its independence Image not found or type unknown Banderas de Cuba y Vietnam Havana, September 2 (RHC)--Cuba's top leaders sent today to their counterparts in Vietnam messages of congratulations and friendship on the 75th anniversary of the proclamation of independence of this country. Among the letters were those from the first secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba (PCC), Raúl Castro, and the president of the Caribbean nation, Miguel Díaz-Canel. In his message to Nguyen Phu Trong, Secretary-General of the Communist Party and President of Vietnam, the Cuban party leader conveyed 'cordial congratulations' on behalf of the people and the Cuban Communist Party. In a communication to Phu Trong and Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc, President Díaz-Canel conveyed his "most sincere congratulations on behalf of the Cuban people and government" and confirmed to them the "firm will to continue strengthening the relations of friendship and cooperation between our nations. The president also expressed the pride of his compatriots "for the historic and supp ortive ties forged between both peoples in the common struggle for freedom, independence, and development. Cuba's Prime Minister Manuel Marrero Cruz and Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla also sent congratulatory messages to their counterparts. Vietnam celebrates its National Day on September 2 because on that day in 1945, its first president, Ho Chi Minh, read in the capital's Ba Dinh Square the Declaration of Independence against the defeated French colonialism. https://www.radiohc.cu/index.php/en/noticias/nacionales/232975-cubas-top-leaders-congratulate-viet-nam- on-the-75th-anniversary-of-its-independence Radio Habana Cuba.

Alejandro Ernesto EFE Prodded by an uprising, a wrecked economy and a worsening pandemic, the Cuban government is allowing the creation of small and medium-sized private businesses for the first time in decades. Still, most sectors will remain in state hands, and Cubans abroad cannot be owners, despite early suggestions to the contrary. Cubans haven’t been able to own a business since 1968, when the Fidel Castro government confiscated the last establishments still in private hands, everything from bodegas to frita stands. Five decades later, most state companies are bankrupt, agricultural and industrial production has plummeted, and widespread shortages of food, medicines and basic goods are the public facade of Cuba’s socialism. “The mere fact that they have done this, knowing how painful that is for some of the people in the Communist Party, is huge,” said John Kavulich, who has been tracking for years changes in Cuba as president of the U.S.-Cuba Trade and Economic Council. “There are few admissions the Cuban government could make that would better demonstrate the failure of their system than this announcement.” The new laws, published last week on the official government gazette, also set the stage for what experts believe are the first steps towards a veiled privatization effort by reconverting state companies into small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that will remain state-owned but are expected to act independently.
