This edition aims to shed light on why, despite predictions of imminent collapse, the Castro regime has remained in power. It offers insights into the staying power of dictatorships and illegitimate regimes despite crisis and ostracism.
It's now in its 11th edition I think. I've flipped through a few of the others, but this the 5th edition is indispensable. Peter Rodman's chapter about teh Missile Crisis 20 years on is especially good.
