COMPARATIVE POLITICS: AREAS 49.03 - Latin American Politics:Cuba

Institution:

Dartmouth College

Subject:

Description:

Not offered in 2008-2009; may be offered in 2009-2010 As one of the world's few remaining socialist regimes, Cuba is unique. But Cuba is also subject to many of the forces that have shaped other countries in Latin America and the third world: a heritage of Spanish colonialism and slavery, a geography that contains a limited array of natural resources and a system of government that has evolved under the constant shadow of the United States. This course examines the politics and culture of Cuba in the 20th and early 21st centuries in order to understand Latin American politics-and politics more generally. Dist. SOC or INT. Baldez
