Nice works guys. Thanks too Laura for sharing key points from your notes. Very succinct and much appreciated. I have a natural preference for some level of diagnosis/prognosis in the text of the assignment, not […]

Looks really solid I reckon. Nice work everybody. Sorry, I’ve been knocked for six by a nasty flu last couple of days. Thanks for seeing it through.

Luke – I’ve made some slight changes and done a bit of reordering to our political component which you’ll want to look over too. Cheers, Liam

Great work Mostafa. I agree the two page limit is tricky. You look to have nailed the issues though!

Below is a link to Cuba’s recent accession (just yesterday in fact – the ink’s not even dry yet) to the UN Convention on Cluster Munitions.…[Read more]

The reason I’m raising this here is that, consistent with Luke’s assessment of a US change in tactic (serving an otherwise unchanged strategy of domination), the neoliberal market economy the US is trying to install in Cuba will likely achieve domination predominately through structural violence. In such circumstances, the basic needs of ordinary…[Read more]

Here’s my draft contribution. Please feel free to comment on any aspect and propose changes anywhere and everywhere. I found myself including a para each for the diagnosis and prognosis because, to […]
