Abstract "Cuba's Forgotten Decade provides a comprehensive assessment of the 1970s in Cuba that challenges the prevailing interpretation of the revolution as simply a period of "Sovietization." Drawing from multidisciplinary perspectives, this book demonstrates that the decade was a time of intense transformation that proved pivotal to the development of the revolution"-- Provided by publisher.
