CUBA/ESPAGNE. Une histoire de famille(s)

Abstract

ABSTRACT- In spite of a late independence, obtained after a cruel war, Spain and Cuba have always mantained very close relations even during the worst periods of their history. The present contribution is a brief attempt to explain that the populations' movements and the family ties, among the popular classes of society as well as in the elites, have turned Cuba into the most Spanish land of America, occupying ever since the first place among Spain's foreign concerns.
