How Did Cuba and Canada Practise “Development” in the 1970s? cuso and the cujae Project

Beginning a New Cuban Dream
Carlos Varela is one of the best-known singer-songwriters to emerge from the Cuban nueva trova movement: heir to the musical traditions forged by Silvio Rodríguez and Pablo Milanés. Parochially, if accurately, known in North America as “Cuba's Bob Dylan,” he has produced eight CDs since he began recording in 1988 and has toured Europe, the United Kingdom, Latin America, the Caribbean, and North America. In Cuba he is known as the voice of the gen…

Love among the Historians
IN THE NOT-TOO-DISTANT FUTURE, I would wager that scholars interested in the history of sexuality will cease complaining about the paucity of works in their field, and will instead find it as difficult to keep up with the literature as do those who 'follow' women's, labour, or other branches of international social history.

A Proper Account of Improper Sex
PEOPLE MAKE LOVE... but not under conditions of their own choosing,'* (4) asserts Karen Dubinsky in Improper Advances, paraphrasing Marx on human agency in history. The workings of the sexual system in Ontario culture and society between 1880 and 1929, she argues, formed as contested a process as the rise of industrial capitalism in the same period. This was so due to the inequality — social, cultural, as well as economic — that characterized the…
