CUBA AFTER THE THREE HURRICANES: TO FREE THE PRODUCTIVE FORCES AND THE INITIATIVE OF CUBANS
Cuba finds itself in a situation qualitative different from the one we lived before the passage of the two latter hurricanes. In fact, all Cubans know, though we never say, that they have been, at least, three hurricanes , not counting the former hurricanes. Indeed, we believe that these two meteors: Gustav and Ike, have come to fill that quantitative and systematic accumulation of five consecutive decades which has devastated -it literally means...

THE CONCLUSIONS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION AND THE PROTAGONISM OF CUBANS
On the last June 24th 2008 the European Union Council lifted the diplomatic sanctions imposed to the Cuban Government after its unjust decision of imprisonning 75 persons for thinking differently and shooting three black young men who tried to illegally escape from the country, during the sadly remembered “black spring” of 2003. This is an open-to-dialogue decision and a positive gesture that the European Union has clearly sent to the new government...

Even more, we believe that the best “thermometer” to verify the structural changes in Cuba is the will to include,...

We could find this inconsistency even accompanied by a certain amount of amnesia and some double-standard manias, in the behaviour of some international observers...

There is no full change if everybody is not part of it
Something is moving in Cuba. Winds of structural changes have started to blow. Though, as it shows, this is only the beginning of a new stage in our history. This period will be better if we try to carry it out as well as possible from the start because if we do so, mistakes can be prevented and the sinuosity inherent to change can be diminished. It seems that the Cuban people, with undoubtful patience and historic wisdom, offers the government another...

"Convivencia": A threshold for the citizenship and the civil society in Cuba
“Convivencia” is a digital Socio Cultural publication, plural, participatory and respectful for differences. It promotes a healthful diversity where each person will find a space to share and improve life. We aspire living together to be an open house shared by Cubans in the Island and in the Diaspora. A sign and an advance of the common Home we should rebuild and reconcile all of us together. The dimension of the contribution is not what matters....
