The Cuban educational system : entanglements, influences and transfers : report on a workshop held in Havana, April 19 and 20, 2017, organized by the Instituto de Historia de Cuba, Havana and the Department of Economic and Social History of the University of Vienna
It is common knowledge that the self-declared Socialist state that is Cuba has entered unchartered territories in education. There is little research, however, on the far-reaching international resonance of the Cuban educational system, with regard to relations with both the existing community of socialist states and with Asia, Africa and Latin America. On the 19th and 20th of April, 2017, a research workshop, 'The Cuban Educational System: Entanglements, Influences and Transfers', took place in Havana. Invitations to participate in this event were extended by the Cuban Institute of History (Instituto de Historia de Cuba) and the Austrian Science Funded research project 'Experts in Development' and 'Socialist Aid in the era of global competition between political systems West and East' (Project Leader: Berthold Unfried, Department of Economic and Social History, Vienna University). ; peer-reviewed
