Diplomacy Meets Migration: US Relations with Cuba during the Cold War, by Hideaki Kami

摘要

Despite the last 60 years of hostility between Cuba and the United States, thetwo countries have repeatedly engaged in diplomatic negotiations. The subjectcontinually embedded in this dialogue has been migration. Even during theTrump administration, when relations became more tense than they were during the final two years of Barack Obama’s presidency, Cuban and U.S. officialshave met semi-annually to discuss implementation of the 1995 immigrationaccord. This phenomenon offers the rationale for the focus of Diplomacy MeetsMigration, which examines the impact that migration and migrants had onCuban-U.S. relations during the Cold War.
