In this compelling exploration of contemporary Cuba, Aline Marcondes Miglioli, Fábio Luis Barbosa dos Santos, and Vanessa Oliveira delve into the complexities of life on the island, examining the juxtaposition between utopia and exhaustion. Their insightful analysis addresses the pervasive structural decay of housing and the striking presence of vintage automobiles that have become emblematic of Cuban resilience and resourcefulness.

The authors invite readers to consider the broader socio-political implications behind these phenomena, confronting questions about the impact of decades of embargoes and internal policies on the fabric of everyday life. They navigate through the nuanced realities faced by citizens, shedding light on the struggle for basic needs amidst a backdrop of historical idealism.

Additionally, the discourse encompasses the evolution of communication, such as the state of internet access in a nation characterized by its unique political landscape. Through thoughtful narratives and reflections, this work enhances understanding of Cuba’s present circumstances while acknowledging the historical contexts that continue to shape its future.
