Cuba, the United States, and Cultures of the Transnational Left, 1930–1975

Cuba, the United States, and Cultures of the Transnational Left, 1930–1975

Autor: John A. Gronbeck-tedesco

Número de Páginas: 305

This book examines the ways in which Cuba's revolutions of 1933 and 1959 became touchstones for border-crossing endeavors of radical politics and cultural experimentation over the mid-twentieth century. It argues that new networks of solidarity building between US and Cuban allies also brought with them perils and pitfalls that could not be separated from the longer history of US empire in Cuba. As US and Cuban subjects struggled together towards common aspirations of racial and gender equality, fairer distribution of wealth, and anti-imperialism, they created a unique index of cultural work that widens our understanding of the transition between hemispheric modernism and postmodernism. Canvassing poetry, music, journalism, photographs, and other cultural expressions around themes of revolution, this book seeks new understanding of how race, gender, and nationhood could shift in meaning and materialization when traveling across the Florida Straits.

Epidemic Invasions

Epidemic Invasions

Autor: Mariola Espinosa

Número de Páginas: 201

In the early fall of 1897, yellow fever shuttered businesses, paralyzed trade, and caused tens of thousand of people living in the southern United States to abandon their homes and flee for their lives. Originating in Cuba, the deadly plague inspired disease-control measures that not only protected U.S. trade interests but also justified the political and economic domination of the island nation from which the pestilence came. By focusing on yellow fever, Epidemic Invasions uncovers for the first time how the devastating power of this virus profoundly shaped the relationship between the two countries. Yellow fever in Cuba, Mariola Espinosa demonstrates, motivated the United States to declare war against Spain in 1898, and, after the war was won and the disease eradicated, the United States demanded that Cuba pledge in its new constitution to maintain the sanitation standards established during the occupation. By situating the history of the fight against yellow fever within its political, military, and economic context, Espinosa reveals that the U.S. program of sanitation and disease control in Cuba was not a charitable endeavor. Instead, she shows that it was an exercise in...

Army Politics in Cuba, 1898-1958

Army Politics in Cuba, 1898-1958

Autor: Louis A. Pérez Jr.

Número de Páginas: 257

Louis A. Perez examines the founding of the national army in Cuba, the rise and fall of Cuban army preeminence during the Machado regime, the bizarre army seizure of power in 1933, which resulted in the collapse of the officer corps, and follows the dominance of the army until the revolution of 1958. He shows that the Cuban political order rested on the stability of the army, which itself grew increasingly estranged from national traditions and eventually became the tool of a clique of political leaders, only to fall to rebel forces during the revolution.

Leonard Wood and Cuban Independence, 1898–1902

Leonard Wood and Cuban Independence, 1898–1902

Autor: James H. Hitchman

Número de Páginas: 321

This is a study of the Military Government of Cuba from 1898 to 1902. Tracing and explaining the actions of General Leonard Wood's adminis tration during those years reveals how the United States Government re solved the questions of independence, strategic security, and economic inter ests in regard to Cuba. Leonard Wood, Secretary of War Elihu Root, Senator Orville H. Platt, and President William McKinley formulated and carried out policies that had a strong influence on subsequent Cuban-American relations. The broader aspects of this study, civil-military relations and American imperialism, are topics of importance to all citizens today. This is institutional and biographical history, written in the belief that a full ac count of the men, action, and circumstances will add to our understanding of the period when the United States emerged as a world power. I am indebted to Professors Gerald E. Wheeler of San Jose State College and Armin Rappaport of the University of California, San Diego, who di rected my research in the early stages, and to Professor Eric Bellquist of the University of California, Berkeley, for his criticism of the manuscript when it was in dissertation stage. ...

Cuba

Número de Páginas: 472

Lou Perez's Cuba has been a welcome addition to the Cuban history course since it first appeared. The Second Edition has solidified its place as the leading choice among teachers of modern Cuban history, and, based on events over the past nine years, the text has now been updated and revised. Perez has added new material covering the years from 1995 through 2004 in the chapter on Socialist Cuba (the last chapter). Further, the book ends with a political chronology, which has beenrevised and updated; the extensive bibliography been condensed where necessary (through elimination of outdated or superseded entries) and expanded to highlight the scholarship of the past decade (some of it by Perez himself). He has also condensed material in the body of the text where possible.The new edition features a slightly larger format and for the first time, photos in the text and the inclusion of two new maps. Sales of the previous editions have been extremely good, and there's every reason to think that a new Third edition will have an even more enthusiastic reception.

Cuba and the United States

Autor: Louis A. Pérez

Número de Páginas: 361

The Times Literary Supplement calls Louis A. Pérez Jr. "the foremost historian of Cuba writing in English." In this new edition of his acclaimed 1990 volume, he brings his expertise to bear on the history and direction of relations between Cuba and the United States. Of all the peoples in Latin America, the author argues, none have been more familiar to the United States than Cubans--who in turn have come to know their northern neighbors equally well. Focusing on what President McKinley called "the ties of singular intimacy" linking the destinies of the two societies, Pérez examines the points at which they have made contact--politically, culturally, economically--and explores the dilemmas that proximity to the United States has posed to Cubans in their quest for national identity. This edition has been updated to cover such developments of recent years as the renewed debate over American trade sanctions against Cuba, the Elián González controversy, and increased cultural exchanges between the two countries. Also included are a new preface and an updated bibliographical essay.

Revolutionary Masculinity and Racial Inequality

Revolutionary Masculinity and Racial Inequality

Autor: Bonnie A. Lucero

Número de Páginas: 361

One of the most paradoxical aspects of Cuban history is the coexistence of national myths of racial harmony with lived experiences of racial inequality. Here a historian addresses this issue by examining the ways soldiers and politicians coded their discussions of race in ideas of masculinity during Cuba’s transition from colony to republic. Cuban insurgents, the author shows, rarely mentioned race outright. Instead, they often expressed their attitudes toward racial hierarchy through distinctly gendered language—revolutionary masculinity. By examining the relationship between historical experiences of race and discourses of masculinity, Lucero advances understandings about how racial exclusion functioned in a supposedly raceless society. Revolutionary masculinity, she shows, outwardly reinforced the centrality of color blindness to Cuban ideals of manhood at the same time as it perpetuated exclusion of Cubans of African descent from positions of authority.

Histoire de La Havane

Histoire de La Havane

Autor: Emmanuel Vincenot

Número de Páginas: 506

Fondée au début du xvie siècle, La Havane s’est très vite imposée comme une cité stratégique, vivant du passage des flottes, du travail des esclaves et du commerce du sucre et du tabac. Sa désignation comme capitale de Cuba en 1607, l’envol de la production de sucre après la révolution haïtienne de 1791, la fin de la présence coloniale espagnole en 1898 et les occupations militaires du début du xxe siècle comptent parmi les événements clés qui marquent son devenir.Avec l’entrée en scène de Fidel Castro et du Che, en 1959, commence à se construire le mythe de la ville révolutionnaire, bouillonnante, généreuse et effrontée. Quelques décennies plus tard, la fièvre retombée, La Havane devient un musée à ciel ouvert des espoirs déçus, que les touristes visitent à bord de pittoresques voitures hors d’âge. La normalisation des relations diplomatiques amorcée en 2015 va-t-elle inaugurer une nouvelle ère ?Emmanuel Vincenot nous propose une histoire formidablement vivante de cette ville au destin tumultueux, lié à celui de l’Europe, de l’Afrique et de l’Amérique. Parce que La Havane n’a jamais cessé d’inspirer les voyageurs et les...
