Abstract

In this paper, the role that Cuba has played in the International Economy is analyzed from four aspects: Cuban insertion in the international economy between 1959 and 1989, a period that was characterized by its growing participation in the system of international socialist division of the job; The Cuban economy in the system of the socialist international division of labor until 1989; The reinsertion of Cuba into the international economy since 1990, where the transformations adopted during the last three years place this country in a more favorable position to face its reinsertion into the world economy in the medium term and, finally, the challenges for the Cuban economy in the nineties and the new markets.
