Cuba

Below you will find four papers on Cuba. The first is an unpublished paper on the Cuban health system from 2010. The next two papers provide GDP and PPP adjusted income comparisons for Cuba since the formation of the Republic in 1902. The JEH (Journal of Economic History) paper covers the Republic. The Revista paper covers the Revolutionary economy. The final paper attempts to make sense of Cuba's slide in the world income distribution.
