Abstract

This article examines the political and economic issues that arose in relations between the Soviet bloc and Cuba from 1959 through 1991, including the admission of Cuba into the Soviet-dominated Council for Economic Mutual Assistance (CMEA) in the early 1970s. The article breaks new ground by consulting previously unseen primary documents originating from the East European states and Cuba, which highlight the often contentious ties between the European CMEA states and Cuba. The East European governments were often dismayed by the egregious economic mismanagement of Fidel Castro's regime and tried, mostly unsuccessfully, to encourage better policies. The relationship that emerged was shaped in part by Cuba's ever-increasing demands, by the East European states’ own economic limitations, and by the Soviet Union's far-reaching political objectives.

长期误解:古巴与苏联集团的经济联系
本文探讨了 1959 年至 1991 年苏联集团与古巴关系中出现的政治和经济问题,包括 20 世纪 70 年代初古巴加入苏联主导的经济互助委员会(CMEA)。文章通过查阅以前从未见过的东欧国家和古巴的原始文件开辟了新的研究领域,这些文件突出了欧洲经济互助委员会成员国和古巴之间经常发生争议的关系。东欧各国政府经常对菲德尔-卡斯特罗政权令人震惊的经济管理不善感到失望,并试图鼓励古巴采取更好的政策,但大多没有成功。古巴不断增长的要求、东欧国家自身的经济局限性以及苏联影响深远的政治目标在一定程度上决定了双方关系的形成。
