New book on Micro-Enterprise in Cuba: "Vivir en la cuerda floja" by Elena Sacchetti


My Italian friend and colleague Elena Sacchetti has just published a new book on micro-enterprise in Cuba.  Based on her dissertation in Social Anthropology at the University of Sevilla and on research she conducted over a number of years in Cuba, the book examines changing "work cultures and social identities" on the island.

You can view a PDF of the book's front and back cover and its table of contents here.

You can order the book for your own library here, here, or here.

1 elogios/ataques:

  1. el asunto desde y para cuba es inedito al menos para mi. me leo el indice que es lo que me permite el link porque esperare a que lo pongan como ebook a 99 centavos si para ese momento ya no habria que escribir otro. igual util, algun beneficiario de los millones incluyendo a los cardenales debieran pagar los derechos de autor y hacer una impresion popular free para los sujetos del libro. se lo merecen. o no?

Rules to blog by:
1. More light than heat; More argument than attack.
2. How to fight fair: If you must attack, fine - but attack others' (or my) arguments, not persons, families, or waistlines.
3. Show me the money - back up your statements with reasons and examples, not innuendo and character assassinations.
4. Be respectful, even (especially) of those with whom you disagree.
5. And the golden rule: Treat others as you yourself would want to be treated.
