The December 2014 "Obama accords" between the governments of the United States and Cuba significantly alter the travel and trade policies that have been enforced for the past five decades. They also foreshadow a potential dismantling of longstanding ideological debates that have too often framed external critical appraisals of creative art and culture in Cuba. The root issue of the u.s. economic blockade continues to affect Cuba's social development. Yet it will come as no surprise that the impact of any change, whether economic, ideological, social, or cultural, at first at least, will not be equally shared by urban and rural populations
