Will Cuba's dictatorship be the first communist regime to not survive beyond the founding generation?
A conversation with Professors Jaime Suchlicki and Carlos Eire
- Transition is understood as the gradual replacement of
an autocratic regime by a democratic political order.
- Succession denotes changes of power within the boundaries of a given regime.
- Communist Cuba is still ruled by leadership of the founding generation of the Castro dictatorship.
- Communist regimes around the world have continued beyond first generation leadership. Will Cuba's regime be different?
