Cuban cobalt: A gateway to strategic minerals politics
This article explores Cuba’s status within the context of strategic minerals politics, focusing specifically on cobalt. Cuba has the third largest cobalt reserves in the world, which is a crucial element in lithium-ion batteries (especially those used in electric cars). The US, on the other hand, is sorely lacking in cobalt, which is on Washington’s list of Strategic Raw Minerals and is ranked third in terms of its “supply chain risk”. The key is…
Cuba's Roswell Connection: A Crack in the Economic Door
Cuba's International Relations: The Anatomy of a Nationalistic Foreign Policy
From its inception, Fidel Castro's revolution has exerted an impact on the international scene far out of proportion to Cuba's modest size and limited resources. This phenomenon became more pronounced in the mid-1970s as Havana's foreign policies took on truly global parameters that involved the dispatch of large combat forces to Angola and Ethiopia, the initiation of ambitious military and developmental aid programs for Third World nations, and …

Cuba's Foreign Relations in a Post-Soviet World
In his analysis of the broad scope of revolutionary Cuba's foreign relations, H. Michael Erisman emphasizes two key aspects: Cuba's adjustment since the disintegration of the Soviet Bloc and the ongoing confrontation between Cuba and the United States. Using revolutionary Cuba's foreign relations as a case study in counterdependency politics, he proposes that the country has always been highly sensitive to the danger of overdependence on an exter…

The Caricom States and US Foreign Policy: The Danger of Central Americanization
Traditionally most North Americans look upon the English-speaking Caribbean primarily as a place for tourists to pursue their quest for the three S's: sun, sand and surf- a perspective which generates little, if any, concern for the region's political dynamics. Indeed, the prevailing attitude seems to be that these countries, known collectively as the CARICOM states, are not politically important because they are so small and thus not worth the t…
