Perceived by some as a social problem that needed to be eliminated, and as a liberating economic strategy by others, the term is discussed in major studies on contemporary Cuba and often mentioned by travel writers outside of Cuba. Some scholars define jineterismo as the new female strategy adopted by young women to obtain hard currency, on the other hand, an influential Cuban politician, criticised jineteras, stating that they were immoral and embarrassing to Cuba. This study seeks to understand the meanings and practices of jineterismo from a bottom up perspective. Using ethnography to locate answers about jineterismo, I explore the meanings of the concept based on the views of those that Cuban society labels as jineteras. The central argument put forward in this study is that jineterismo has to be analysed as a diverse set of practices caused by a diverse set of factors, and that it involves a heterogeneous group of individuals. Jineterismo, I argue, ranges from the struggle to obtain hard currency to the practices involved in developing and maintaining romantic relationships with tourists, and is strongly informed by the desire to emigrate abroad. While jineterismo currently appears to be embedded in discourses of prostitution, this thesis highlights the romantic side of jineterismo and brings to the fore young Cuban women’s perceptions of Cuban men and life in Cuba, views that contrast significantly with their positive images of Europeans and the Western world. More importantly, the thesis improves our knowledge of jineterismo by offering a new perspective into the reasons that lead young Cuban women to seek relationships outside Cuba. 2 Contents List of Tables and Illustrations 4 Declaration of Authorship 5 Acknowledgements 6 Chapter 1 Introduction 7 Chapter 2 Historical, Socio-Economic and Political Background of ‘La Lucha’ 47 Chapter 3 Afro-Cuban Women’s Discourses of Love and Conflict 94 Chapter 4 Jineterismo – Examining its Meanings and Practices 138 Chapter 5 The Daily Struggle to Survive 177 .

I was able to write and rewrite this thesis and read extensively, while he wrote his ‘PhD Stories’ on his laptop. I am indebted to him for allowing my books to take over the space that he should have occupied during all those years of research, which were the first years of his life. Thank you Boris, my Cuban husband, for babysitting in Havana and putting up with my obsession with Cuba! My appreciation to my five beloved sisters for being there for me, finalmente acabei de escrever a tese! This thesis is dedicated also to my grandmother Antonia, the typically feisty woman, who smiled and laughed until the very end, despite losing most of her hearing during the colonial wars. This thesis would not have been possible without the tireless and admiring support of many academics. I am deeply indebted to the kind, knowledgeable, and very humble, Doctor Heidi Armbruster. Heidi accompanied me on this journey gracefully, always offering me precise and constructive feedback. Whenever I decided that I could not cope with the workload (work, family and PhD), an email from Heidi would appear in my inbox, encouraging me to keep focused and reassuring me that I was on the right track. Each time I felt that I had no more blood to give, Heidi would remind me to go back to my data, ‘listen to your interviews, pick up the patterns, the phrases…’ Slowly, I compiled enough information to write this PhD. Therefore, this thesis is warmly dedicated to you. Special thanks to Professor Jo Labanyi for being the first academic that believed in this project and allowing me to experiment with ideas in the early phases of this thesis. I would like to express deepest appreciation to Professor Clare Mar Molinero, my supervisor, for taking over from Jo and reading my work until the early hours in the morning. Furthermore, I thank you immensely for helping me cover proofreading costs. Many thanks Professor Liz Dore for giving me feedback on Chapter 3. Other people that I must thank are David Fleming for proofreading the thesis and Dr Cassandra Ellerbe- Dueck, who kindly helped me to prepare for my viva. During the Mock Viva, Cassandra and Heidi asked me challenging and interesting questions; the exercise was extremely useful. Last, but definitely not least, I thank all the Cuban participants who ‘adopted’ me and my international family and especially for allowing me to gain an insight into their fascinating world. 6 Chapter 1: Introduction 26 de Julio: Victoria de las ideas (26th of July: Victory of Ideas) (Cuban slogan) 1.1. Introduction A day in July 2007: the streets of Vedado, one of the most prosperous neighbourhoods in central Havana, are filled with people. Policemen stand in the corners of the main tourist hotels while numerous Cubans queue for buses in Calle L.1 On the other side of the road, opposite the Habana Libre hotel, hundreds of Cubans queue outside Coppelia, an ice- cream rank on the same street, while pedestrians try to cram into taxis that already have quite a few passengers inside. Tourists are sightseeing taking photographs of the city and walking around. I notice that the ‘typical’ tourists are immediately visible to the majority. With their backpacks, sandals, light clothes and pale skins, tourists stand out from the crowd. In one of the dollar restaurants2 a couple is seated having a drink; she appears to be a young Afro-Cuban woman and he could be a Western tourist. They do not talk much and do not show openly any sign of affection towards each other.

  • A Comparative Case Study of the Political Economy of Music in Cuba and Argentina by Paul Ruffner Honors Capstone Prof
    Music, Money, and the Man: A Comparative Case Study of the Political Economy of Music in Cuba and Argentina By Paul Ruffner Honors Capstone Prof. Clarence Lusane May 4, 2009 Political economy is an interpretive framework which has been applied to many different areas in a wide range of societies. Music, however, is an area which has received remarkably little attention; this is especially surprising given the fact that music from various historical periods contains political messages. An American need only be reminded of songs such as Billy Holliday’s “Strange Fruit” or the general sentiments of the punk movement of the 1970s and 80s to realize that American music is not immune to this phenomenon. Cuba and Argentina are two countries with remarkably different historical experiences and economic structures, yet both have experience with vibrant traditions of music which contains political messages, which will hereafter be referred to as political music. That being said, important differences exist with respect to both the politics and economics of the music industries in the two countries. Whereas Cuban music as a general rule makes commentaries on specific historical events and political situations, its Argentine counterpart is much more metaphorical in its lyrics, and much more rhythmically and structurally influenced by American popular music. These and other differences can largely be explained as resulting from the relations between the community of musicians and the state, more specifically state structure and ideological affiliation in both cases, with the addition of direct state control over the music industry in the Cuban case, whereas the Argentine music industry is dominated largely by multinational concerns in a liberal democratic state.

  • Andean Music, the Left and Pan-Americanism: the Early History
    Andean Music, the Left, and Pan-Latin Americanism: The Early History1 Fernando Rios (University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign) In late 1967, future Nueva Canción (“New Song”) superstars Quilapayún debuted in Paris amid news of Che Guevara’s capture in Bolivia. The ensemble arrived in France with little fanfare. Quilapayún was not well-known at this time in Europe or even back home in Chile, but nonetheless the ensemble enjoyed a favorable reception in the French capital. Remembering their Paris debut, Quilapayún member Carrasco Pirard noted that “Latin American folklore was already well-known among French [university] students” by 1967 and that “our synthesis of kena and revolution had much success among our French friends who shared our political aspirations, wore beards, admired the Cuban Revolution and plotted against international capitalism” (Carrasco Pirard 1988: 124-125, my emphases). Six years later, General Augusto Pinochet’s bloody military coup marked the beginning of Quilapayún’s fifteen-year European exile along with that of fellow Nueva Canción exponents Inti-Illimani. With a pan-Latin Americanist repertory that prominently featured Andean genres and instruments, Quilapayún and Inti-Illimani were ever-present headliners at Leftist and anti-imperialist solidarity events worldwide throughout the 1970s and 1980s. Consequently both Chilean ensembles played an important role in the transnational diffusion of Andean folkloric music and contributed to its widespread association with Leftist politics. But, as Carrasco Pirard’s comment suggests, Andean folkloric music was popular in Europe before Pinochet’s coup exiled Quilapayún and Inti-Illimani in 1973, and by this time Andean music was already associated with the Left in the Old World.

    THE LEGALIZATION OF PROSTITUTION: A Violation of International Law Dianne Post 1826 E Willetta St Phoenix, AZ 85006-3047 602-271-9019 pho/fax email: [email protected] www.diannepost.net www.diannepost.com October 2010 Introduction ―The prostitution of women and girls for profit is one of the fastest growing global enterprises, …‖1 It is now ranked by the United Nations as number two in international crime, tied with illegal arms sales and only trailing illegal drug sales. 2 “ Trafficking in women and children is a growing worldwide problem that needs to be tackled on a global and national level. Women and children are particularly vulnerable to this modern form of slavery. Of the estimated 600,000 to 800,000 people trafficked across international borders each year approximately 80 percent are women and girls and up to 50 percent are minors. The rate of paid-for sex with women has doubled in a decade, reveals research in Sexually Transmitted Infections. The findings are based on the results of two national surveys of 11,000 British adults in 1990 and 2000 (Natsal). Respondents were asked about their sexual lifestyles and attitudes to sex. Men were asked if they had ever paid for sex. In 1990, 5.6 percent of the men said they had paid for sex at some time during their lives, with two percent saying they had done this within the previous five years, and 0.5 percent within the past year. Ten years later, the comparable figures were twice as high.3 The increase in trafficking and prostitution coincides with more countries suggesting that legalization and thus normalization of prostitution is permissible.

    SEX AND STATE MAKING IN REVOLUTIONARY CUBA, 1959-1968 Rachel M. Hynson A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2014 Approved By: Kathryn J. Burns Emily Susan Burrill John Charles Chasteen Miguel La Serna Raúl Necochea López Lars Schoultz ©2014 Rachel M. Hynson ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT RACHEL M. HYNSON: Sex and State Making in Revolutionary Cuba, 1959-1968 (Under the direction of Kathryn J. Burns) This dissertation explores the construction of the revolutionary state in order to trace the entwinement of familial health and national security during the first decade of the Cuban revolution. It analyzes campaigns deployed by government officials to remake sexual norms and produce families deemed healthier than those under capitalism. More specifically, my dissertation examines state efforts that normalized patriarchy by criminalizing abortion, legitimized marriage through collective weddings, schematized the workforce by condemning female prostitution, and restructured economic gender roles via the rehabilitation of chulos (loosely translated as “kept men”). Through close analysis of print media, speeches, travel narratives, and oral histories, my work makes two major contributions to the study of Cuban sexuality. First, by joining prerevolutionary context to an analysis of revolutionary policies, I demonstrate that the sexual behaviors lauded by state officials as new measures of revolutionary well-being were in fact traditional criteria recycled from prior Cuban regimes. Second, I assert that revolutionary leadership of the 1960s attempted to remake the state by challenging popular definitions of terms such as marriage, family planning, sex worker, and chulo.

Graper Master of Arts School of Music and Dance June 2014 Title: “¿Qué Dice Usted?”: Discourses of Femininity in Nueva Trova Cubana Following the Revolution of 1959, the Cuban government implemented policy reforms geared towards increasing women’s rights. Despite these efforts, however, sexism persists in Cuban society. This difference between rhetoric and reality is reflected in the song genre, nueva trova, which foregrounds a progressive agenda for women’s rights but continues to marginalize their participation. Prominent nueva trova performers Silvio Rodríguez and Pablo Milanés advocate women’s rights in their songs, but their music remains couched in patriarchal structures that prevent women from speaking for themselves. Sara González, one of the first prominent female nueva trova composers, was able to integrate into government-supported trova institutions by adopting a masculine, revolutionary aesthetic, which she then adapted to feminist themes to combat the ideological disparity.

It has been accepted for inclusion in International Immersion Program Papers by an authorized administrator of Chicago Unbound. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Blair Bradford Privatization Reforms and the Cuban Tourism Industry: A Reflection on the Benefits and Consequences During the second-half of the twentieth-century, Cuba’s tourism industry experienced multiple cycles of expansion and contraction. Before Castro’s Revolution in 1959, the Cuban tourism industry was entirely privatized, often with American ownership. After 1959, the country immediately nationalized the industry and then experimented with a mixture of state-owned and privatized models, each having a varying degree of success. Because privatization is generally disfavored by communist governments, it is unsurprising that privatization in the Cuban tourism industry has been limited and has usually only occurred in times of desperate economic need. Previous growth of the tourism industry produced two negative consequences: the growth of inequality among the Cuban population and the resurgence of prostitution and sex tourism. Because of these phenomena and other ideological concerns, the Cuban government has been wary of further growth through privatization.
