Abstract

In light of the current world financial crisis, Cuba is compelled to make socioeconomic changes in order to preserve its social model. The serious difficulties facing the Island stem as much from external factors – mainly the sanctions imposed by the United States, the world systemic crisis and natural disasters – as from internal factors, namely bureaucracy, corruption, low productivity, a hypertrophic public sector and little or no culture of debate, among others. Before its adoption by the Cuban Parliament in August 2011, the project to reform the economic model presented to the VII Congress of the Communist Party of Cuba was the object of profound changes resulting from a widespread popular discussion.
