  • Educational Experiences During the “Special Period” in Cuba
    Dr. Martin Camacho Dean, Fain Collegeof Fine Arts Midwestern State University Arts Education in Cuba Revolutionary Period Expansion of artistic education and prioritization from 1961 Incorporation of music, dance and visual arts disciplines in primary education (1975) Creation of the Escuela Nacional de Arte System ENA (National Schools of Arts) 1962 – Music, Visual Arts, Theatre, Ballet, Dance, Circus Creation of Specialized Artistic Elementary System (Vocational Schools) ISA – Instituto Superior de Arte University of the Arts Created in 1976 for three disciplines: music, visual arts, and theatre. It recently added Media Arts (FAMCA) and four units outside Havana Specialized Artistic Education Music Example VOCATIONAL SHOOLS - Music Children enter Vocational Music Schools between ages 6-10 and complete K 1-9. Schools are available at the province (state) level. NATIONAL SCHOOLS OF ART - After a competitive process, selected students move to the National Schools or Art to complete professional training and grades K 10-12. Schools are available only at the regional level. UNIVERSITY - After a competitive process, selected students are admitted at ISA, University of the Arts, the only institution of higher education in the arts in Cuba. Cuban Curricula and Soviet Support (Music) Musical educational model was copied and supported by and large by the Soviet Union. The music curricula favored the formation of trained musicians in classical and the Western European tradition. Disciplines such as jazz, afro-Cuban, or traditional Cuban music were not particularly thought as strong within the music curricula, but as a co-curricular or extra-curricular activity. Special Period – Periodo Especial of 1990 The collapse of the Soviet Union in the 1990s and the toughening of the American Embargo (Torricelli and Helms-Burton law) brought very negative economic consequences.

  • Cuba's Social Services
    CUBA’S SOCIAL SERVICES: A REVIEW OF EDUCATION, HEALTH, AND SANITATION* Dan Erikson, Annie Lord and Peter Wolf Inter-American Dialogue January 31, 2002 * Commissioned as background for the World Development Report 2004: Making Services Work for Poor People. The authors would like to thank Arachu Castro of Harvard University, Sheryl Lutjens of Arizona University, and Jeffrey Puryear of the Inter-American Dialogue for their comments on previous drafts. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Introduction to Cuba’s Social Services 3 2. Cuba’s Education System 8 3. Cuba’s Healthcare and Sanitation 21 4. Appendix 32 5. Bibliography 38 2 INTRODUCTION TO CUBA’S SOCIAL SERVICES Cuba has become internationally recognized for its achievements in the areas of education and health, with social service delivery outcomes that surpass most countries in the developing world and in some areas match first-world standards. Since the Cuban revolution in 1959, and the subsequent establishment of a communist one-party government, the country has created a social service system that guarantees universal access to education and health care provided by the state. This model has enabled Cuba to achieve near universal literacy, the eradication of certain diseases, widespread access to potable water and basic sanitation, and among the lowest infant mortality rates and longest life expectancies in the region. A review of Cuba’s social indicators reveals a pattern of almost continuous improvement from the 1960s through the end of the 1980s. Several major indices, such as life expectancy and infant mortality, continued to improve during the country’s economic crisis of the 1990s, although other areas, such as incidence of certain diseases and over-65 mortality, were negatively affected.

  • Commission for Assistance to a Free Cuba
    Stolen from the Archive of Dr. Antonio R. de la Cova http://www.latinamericanstudies.org/cuba-books.htm Commission for Assistance to a Free Cuba Report to the President May 2004 Colin L. Powell Secretary of State Chairman Stolen from the Archive of Dr. Antonio R. de la Cova http://www.latinamericanstudies.org/cuba-books.htm FOREWORD by Secretary of State Colin L. Powell Over the past two decades, the Western Hemisphere has seen dramatic advances in the institutionalization of democracy and the spread of free market economies. Today, the nations of the Americas are working in close partnership to build a hemisphere based on political and economic freedom where dictators, traffickers and terrorists cannot thrive. As fate would have it, I was in Lima, Peru joining our hemispheric neighbors in the adoption of the Inter-American Democratic Charter when the terrorists struck the United States on September 11, 2001. By adopting the Democratic Charter, the countries of our hemisphere made a powerful statement in support of freedom, humanity and peace. Conspicuous for its absence on that historic occasion was Cuba. Cuba alone among the hemispheric nations did not adopt the Democratic Charter. That is not surprising, for Cuba alone among the nations of Americas is a dictatorship. For over four decades, the regime of Fidel Castro has imposed upon the Cuban people a communist system of government that systematically violates their most fundamental human rights. Just last year, the Castro regime consigned 75 human rights activists, independent librarians and journalists and democracy advocates to an average of nearly 20 years of imprisonment.

Introduction Socio-economic disparities prevail in the neo-colonial education sy- stems that remain in many countries and regions, constituting a barrier to effective national development. Taking these disparities as a starting point, this paper considers the Cuban model of education and its current reforms as an alternative way of conceptualizing education and its role in develop- ment. The authors, two Cuban scholars and one Jamaican scholar, bring to this topic many years of involvement in planning, implementing and tea- ching education for national development, and have a particular interest in the global significance of the commitment that Cuba has demonstrated in promoting equity with quality in education.

  • Cuba Report to Pres.Ai
    Commission for Assistance to a Free Cuba Report to the President May 2004 Colin L. Powell Secretary of State Chairman FOREWORD by Secretary of State Colin L.

Just last year, the Castro regime consigned 75 human rights activists, independent librarians and journalists and democracy advocates to an average of nearly 20 years of imprisonment. These prisoners of conscience are serving out their harsh sentences under inhumane and highly unsanitary conditions, where medical services are wholly inadequate. The Democratic Charter clearly states: “The peoples of the Americas have a right to democracy and their governments have an obligation to promote and defend it.” In fulfillment of that solemn obligation, the United States remains strongly committed to supporting the efforts of the Cuban people to secure the blessings of democracy for themselves and their children.

Published in 2003. REHABILITATING EDUCATION IN CUBA: ASSESSMENT OF CONDITIONS AND POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS Cuba Transition Project – CTP The Cuba Transition Project, at the Institute for Cuban and Cuban-American Studies (ICCAS), University of Miami, is an important and timely project to study and make recommendations for the reconstruction of Cuba once the post-Castro transition begins in earnest. The transitions in Central and Eastern Europe, Nicaragua, and Spain are being analyzed and lessons drawn for the future of Cuba. The project began in January 2002 and is funded by a grant from the U.S. Agency for International Development. Programs and Activities • The CTP is publishing original research, with practical alternative recommendations on various specific aspects of the transition process, commissioned and written for the CTP by ICCAS Staff and U.S. and foreign scholars with expertise on Cuba. • The CTP is developing four key databases: 1. A full-text database of published and unpublished articles written on topics of transition in Cuba, as well as articles on transition in Central and Eastern Europe, Nicaragua, and Spain. It also includes an extensive bibliography of published and unpublished books, theses, and dissertations on the topic. 2. A full-text database of Cuba’s principal laws, in Spanish, its legal system, including the current Cuban Constitution (in English and Spanish), and other legislation relating to the structure of the existing government.

  • Zoé Valdés and Mayra Montero a DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO
    (Em)bodied Exiles in Contemporary Cuban Literature: Zoé Valdés and Mayra Montero A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Sarah Anne Miller Boelts IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Luis A. Ramos-García, Adviser June 2010 © Sarah Anne Miller Boelts, June 2010 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my adviser, Professor Luis Ramos-García, for his consistent support and encouragement from the beginning of this project. My other committee members, Ana Forcinito, Raúl Marrero-Fente, and Patrick McNamara have also been instrumental in this process. A special thank you goes to Zoé Valdés and Mayra Montero who so graciously invited me into their homes and shared their lives and their literature. It is my goal for their voices to shine through in this project. I do agree with Valdés that we are all “bailando con la vida,” in “este breve beso que es la vida.” Also, crucial to my success has been the unwavering presence of my Dissertation Support Group through the University of Minnesota Counseling and Consulting Services. Our biweekly meetings kept me on track and helped me to meet my goals while overcoming obstacles. I have learned more from this group of people than I could ever give back. I would be remiss if I did not thank my high school Spanish teacher, Ruth Lillie, for instilling a love of languages and cultures in me. Her continuous interest and passion for the Spanish language and Hispanic culture influenced me greatly as I continued with my college studies and study abroad opportunities.
