ARIAS GUEVARA, María de los Ángeles e LEYVA REMON, Arisbel. Rural Studies in Cuba. Reflections on Social Structure and Changes in Research Agenda. UH [online]. 2017, n.283, pp.243-258. ISSN 0253-9276.
This paper includes new focal issues in rural studies in Cuba, and shows that social structure has been studied quite often. It begins by pointing out that sociology was belatedly institutionalized, and that their research agenda has been focused on agricultural rather than rural issues.In the late 1980s and early 1990s, there was a change in research agenda as a result of the economic crisis and new model following a reform movement just made. Without abandoning socio-structural approach to studying peasantry and agricultural workers, rural issues started to be studied, with an interdisciplinary and qualitative approach being adopted. Changes in Cuban rural society changed on what issues rural studies were focused and how social scientists were related to this field of study.
