• Resumen

  • Given the circulation of global ideological discourses about the end of socialism, and the turn of many former socialist states towards the market, why write about Cuban socialism today? This is the question that Robin Moore poses in one of the last chapters of his book Music and Revolution, an overview of the development of musical forms under the Cuban socialist system.
