A re-reading of the Cuban Revolution from this angle engages unresolved issues in the theory of socialist humanism and the notion of human development popularized by the United Nations Development Programme (i.e., predicated on capitalism). UNDP economists and other agencies of international cooperation for development give a human face to a capitalist development process that is anything but humane. Socialism in Cuba has taken a very different form (socialist human development) than it did elsewhere in the twentieth century. The Cuban Revolution's unique characteristics enabled it to survive adverse conditions - a 'near-perfect storm' - that still threaten its evolution. 410 0$aStudies in Critical Social Sciences$v36. 606 $aSocialism$zCuba 606 $aHumanism$zCuba 607 $aCuba$xSocial policy 607 $aCuba$xEconomic policy 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSocialism 615 0$aHumanism 676 $a303.44 700 $aVeltmeyer$b Henry$0267475 701 $aRushton$b Mark$0939827 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457794303321 996 $aThe Cuban revolution as socialist human development$92118884 997 $aUNINA
