Cuba, the Elusive Nation Interpretations of National Identity

This anthology brings together scholars from a variety of disciplines who look at one main question: What constitutes Cuban identity? Encouraged to go beyond received ideas and time-worn methodologies, they offer revisionist perspectives that argue for a "Cubanness" marked more by tension and diversity than by harmony and similarity, more impure than pure, more elastic than static. By examining issues often misrepresented or simply ignored in the past, sources and voices contribute to a fluidity that resonates with the collection's title.Fernandez, Damian J. is the author of 'Cuba, the Elusive Nation Interpretations of National Identity' with ISBN 9780813018003 and ISBN 0813018005.
