Ciudades en el Caribe

The comparative study focuses on the four cities over a period of five centuries. The urban history of the Caribbean takes shape in three phases ---colonial, developmentalist and open cities ---with a parenthesis operating in the case of Havana, the "socialist city," a failed attempt to vary the political dynamic of a region faced with North American hegemony and Miami's urban primacy since the 1960s. The author explores the implications of a 21st century megacity, Havana/Miami.
