CUBA-A REVOLUTION IN MOTION
Author discusses new book
Marin Interfaith Task Force on the Americas presents author Isaac Saney on Sunday, April 24, 3:00 PM at the Mill Valley Community Center, Forest Room, 180 Camino Alto, Mill Valley.
In his book Saney writes, “The central contention of this book is that the Cuban experience offers significant insights into not only a different paradigm, but a paradigm that has been largely successful-especially given the objective limitations of a small, poor, underdeveloped island nation-in utilizing the country’s resources and wealth for the public good. This book, intended as an introduction for students and the general reader, explores Cuba as it enters the twenty-first century, a lone island of anti-imperialism, anti-capitalism and socialism in the so-called ‘age of globalization.’ This work seeks to explain what some have called the ‘miracle’ of the Cuban Revolution’s survival in the face of an unprecedented economic contraction.”
Isaac Saney is a member of the faculty at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia and regularly lectures on, writes about and conducts research in Cuba.
