The second half of the 20th century cannot be understood without Cuba. One of the most iconic revolutions in history, the moment when a nuclear war almost broke out, the longest commercial blockade ever remembered and a struggle, that of the Castro regime against the United States, which has lasted for more than sixty years. Now that Trump has returned to power, Cuba is going through a serious social crisis and Raúl Castro, Fidel's successor, is already 93 years old. Is the Cuban Revolution experiencing the end of a cycle? Will Castroism fall? Blas, Edu and Fer review the turbulent history of Cuba and analyze its possible future scenarios in this episode of “It's not the end of the world.” Recommended books: ????
