State Capitalism In Cuba: The Lessons Of The Literature On State Owned Enterprises And Market Liberalization, D. Daniel Sokol Jan 2026

State Capitalism In Cuba: The Lessons Of The Literature On State Owned Enterprises And Market Liberalization, D. Daniel Sokol

Florida Journal of International Law

This Article outlines core concerns for Cuba in its market liberalization process. First, from the agency cost perspective, it explores the limitations of state owned enterprises (SOEs) versus private (publicly traded) firms. Then, it examines the empirical literature on SOEs and SOE reforms and privatizations. Next, the Article offers a number of possible policies going forward that will allow Cuba to reform its state capitalism to benefit Cuba's consumers. Such reforms include SOE corporatization, SOE privatization, and the introduction of a competition policy system to Cuba (as effective corporate governance and competition may be substitutes for each other).

Florida Journal of International Law

In this paper, I have two purposes. First, I offer a simple warning of the dangers posed by cultural imperialism in the legal exchanges that we are beginning. Second, and more positively, I invite my Cuban colleagues to educate me about what happened to the Civil Code in Cuba in the period between 1898 and 1959. The positive aspect should contribute to a comparative study of law in which we can understand the respective Cuban and U.S. legal cultures, using the mixed experience of Puerto Rico with Spanish civil law and the U.S. common law as part of the process …

General Overview Of Cuban Family Law Legislation, Ana María Álvarez-Tabío Albo

Florida Journal of International Law

This Essay will take four routes that converge at multiple points. First, we will review the social context prevailing when the Family Code (Código de Familia) was promulgated on March 8, 1975, coinciding with International Women's Day. Afterwards, we will briefly refer to other pieces of legislation that complete the universe of judicial ordinances protecting the family. Next, we will dedicate more time to examining the fundamental characteristics of the principal institutions of Cuban Family Law.
