CALIBER OF CONTRIBUTORS: The contributing authors are at the top of their field, really tapped into current trends, and bring an authoritative and original perspective to their scholarship. Also, all of the contributors have first-hand experience of the Special Period, having lived permanently or for extended periods of time in Cuba in the 1990sLACK OF COMPETITION: There is little scholarship in English on the Special Period, and much of this focuses on economic and political policy, rather than the arts. This volume would stand out both in its close analysis on the 1990s specifically, as well as its lens of creative production
