• Resumen

  • Cuban historiography has been witnessing a rebirth of studies of the Cuban Republic (1902-1958). Scholars are now revisiting an era that had been neglected until recently, largely due to the barriers erected by the Cold War. Thanks to an acceleration of scholarly exchanges between researchers inside and outside Cuba, we are beginning to see the fruit of this resurgence. Moreover, the creation of the University of North Carolina Press’s “Envisioning Cuba” series, the publisher of the book reviewed here, demonstrates that a prolific period in Cuban historical studies has now arrived.
