Hardback. Condizione: New. A firsthand look at how business owners in Havana navigate the changing Cuban market and state The Struggle for the Market tells the story of Cuba's economic reforms in the 2010s, focusing on the experiences a group of small business owners known as cuentapropistas. These business owners were the most…directly affected by the transition from the state-centered planned economy of earlier decades to an economy in which the state had legalized dozens of job categories for small-scale enterprise-including work in private transport, restaurants, and street vending-and which offered citizens wider opportunities to register a private business. Here, anthropologist Ståle Wig narrates a story of the market reforms and the challenges and triumphs that small-scale entrepreneurs have experienced. By asking what it means for a state to shape a market, and for people to become part of such a project, Wig reveals how small business owners created economic and ethical order for themselves, within a system that both empowered and constrained them. The author, who spent twenty months living and working in Havana's bustling marketplaces, offers a firsthand account of the lives, hopes, and frustrations of people caught up in this moment of historic development. The result is an intimate, firsthand look at how Cubans struggled to make money and meaning as new hierarchies emerged in their society. Ultimately, The Struggle for the Market discounts common assumptions of linear change in favor of an examination of Cuba's economic transition that reveals the intricate dynamics of market and state in a socialist context.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. En 2015, el antropologo noruego Stale Wig se mudo a La Habana para investigar, al volante de un taxi, las reformas de mercado impulsadas por Raul Castro. Havana Taxi narra la historia de tres pasajeros frecuentes -Norges, Linet y Catalina- y de un coche, a la sombra de cambios decisivos: el… acceso a internet, el deshielo con Estados Unidos, la muerte de Fidel Castro y las protestas del 11 de julio. Con rigor antropologico y pulso literario, Wig retrata de cerca a personajes inolvidables que pronto descubren como sus suenos chocan con estructuras viejas y tenaces. "Este antropologo tiene un talento extraordinario como narrador y conoce a fondo Cuba y a los cubanos. Havana Taxi, escrito desde la isla durante "los anos de la ilusion", mientras investigaba las lentisimas reformas economicas y trabajaba como taxista freelance, es un viaje de primera clase al pasado y a una verdad menos visible: lo que Cuba fue entonces y lo que podria ser si sus habitantes alcanzaran libertades a la altura de su talento y creatividad".Ted A. Henken "El libro que mejor explica la Cuba actual: un noruego que, como taxista, se adentra en el mercado negro y saca a la luz los secretos mas profundos del pueblo y del regimen cubano".Luis Dener This item is printed on demand.

paperback. "Ståle Wig escreve de forma emocionante, quase ficcional. Sentimos o suor frio em seu corpo quando ele descreve a visão de um posto de controle policial mais adiante na estrada, sabendo que eles podem interromper sua atividade de motorista a qualquer momento. Ele conta a história de seus amigos aberta e intimamente []… para que eles se tornem um contraste vivo e humano a um sistema sem rosto." Stavanger Aftenblad Entre 2015 e 2018, o antropólogo norueguês Ståle Wig morou em Havana para realizar a pesquisa de campo de seu doutorado. Sua tarefa era registrar, enquanto dirigia um táxi, relatos acerca das reformas de mercado iniciadas pelo então presidente Raúl Castro. Havana táxi é a história de três indivíduos Norges, Linet e Catalina, passageiros frequentes e um táxi. Uma história ambientada à sombra das então recentes mudanças em Cuba, como a conexão com a internet, a abertura para os Estados Unidos e a morte de Fidel Castro. Em uma narrativa potente, Ståle Wig une o rigor científico de uma pesquisa antropológica ao fazer literário ao acompanhar, de forma próxima e íntima, personagens tão diferentes e marcantes, que não demoram a perceber como seus sonhos e iniciativas colidem com estruturas antigas e enraizadas.
