Description: "Open for Business: Building the New Cuban Economy examines the island's still stagnant sectors and market-driven changes under way as the country takes its early steps toward a more dynamic growth model. Richard E. Feinberg, a longtime observer who has been at the forefront of advocating for the recent diplomatic opening between the United States and Cuba, examines key issues such as the vital role of foreign investors, how Cubans will forge a path to innovative entrepreneurship, and the alternative road maps inspired by other emerging economies."--book jacket
