Notes and References

  1. Paraphrased from Vogel, 1995, The Wall Street Journal, as quoted in A Pérez-López (1996): “And this is Cuba, land of vast possibilities and murky probabilities. Money managers who visited Cuba for three days earlier this summer with Latinvest Securities Ltd., a London-based investment bank, found themselves in an economic twilight zone. They discovered a country that wants capitalists, but not capitalism.”
