OverviewDuring the presidency of Raul Castro, Cuba has dramatically reformed its policies toward small private enterprises. Archibald Ritter and Ted Henken consider why - and to what effect. After reviewing the evolution of policy since 1959, the authors contrast the approaches of Fidel and Raul Castro and explore in depth the responses of Cuban entrepreneurs to the new environment. Their work, rich in ethnographic research and extensive interviews, provides a revealing analysis of Cuba's fledgling private sector. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Archibald R. M. Ritter , Ted A.
