GRENIER, Guillermo J.. The Cuban-American Transition: Demographic Changes Drive Ideological Changes. Rev Nov Pob [online]. 2015, vol.11, n.22, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1817-4078.
Cuban-Americans are changing their attitudes about many of the key components of current US/Cuba policy. The paper explores some of the social forces creating the patterns associated with the changing attitudes. Based on the data from the 2014 Cuba Poll, a descriptive analysis of relationships among key demographic variables uncovers compelling patterns associated with the ideological shift occurring in the population. Specifically, the patterns associated with ideology shifts and time of arrival of the migrant as well as his/her age and political party preference are explored. The paper makes clear that the new arrivals to Miami, as well as the younger Cubans, are significantly more interested in normalizing relations with the home country. Unfortunately, a large majority of the new arrivals (migrating since 1995), are not citizens and therefore not able to participate in the electoral processes that shape U.S. policy towards the island.
