1. Reliable economic data on Russia and Cuba is difficult to find. The most comprehensive report on the Cuban economy after the collapse of the Soviet Union is La Economia Cubana: reformas estructurales y desempeño en los noventa (Mexico City: CEPAL, Fondo de Cultura Económica, 1998). From the Cuban perspective, Julio Carranza Valdés, Luis Gutiérrez Urdaneta & Pedro Monreal González's Cuba: Restructuring the Economy: A Contribution to the Debate (London: Institute of Latin American Studies, University of London, 1996) is also an excellent study of the country's transition period. Also worth reading are Ana Julia Jatar-Hausmann's The Cuban Way: Communism, Capitalism and Confrontation (West Hartford: Kumarian Press, forthcoming); Carmelo Mesa-Lago, ed., Cuba after the Cold War (Pittsburgh: Pittsburgh University Press, 1993); and Jorge Pérez-Lopez, ed., Cuba at a Crossroads: Politics and Economics after the Fourth Party Congress (Gainesville: University Press of Florida, 1994).

6. For Russia, one should consult OECD Economic Surveys: Russian Federation (Paris: Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development, 1997) and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development's Transition Report 1995, 1996, and 1997 (London: EBRD). Anders Åslund's How Russia Became a Market Economy (Washington: Brookings Institution Press, 1995) is also very useful for understanding the underlying causes of the Soviet collapse.

9. Jorge Castañeda's fascinating book Compañero: The Life and Death of Che Guevara (New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1997) offers a Latin American view of the Cuban Revolution, its ideology, and its impact on other countries of the region. Also on the Cuban Revolution, but focusing on Castro, is Tad Szulc's Fidel: A Critical Portrait (New York: Avon Books, 1987), which provides a detailed account of the role that Fidel's personality played in the process. For an up-to-date analysis of internal pugnacity within the Communist Party in Cuba, see Maurizio Giuliano's El Caso CEA, Intelectuales e Inqusisidores en Cuba, Perestroika en la Isla? (Miami: Ediciones Universal, 1998).
