Informationen zum Autor Rosi Smith is an educator based in Nottingham, UK. She has worked in secondary, further, and higher education, largely in programs for marginalized young people. Her PhD thesis The Lost Generation?: Education and the Search for the New Cuban Citizen Identity analyzed the role of education in the formation of the political and social citizen identities of today’s young Cubans.   Klappentext This book explores how Cuba’s famously successful and inclusive education system has formed young Cubans’ political, social, and moral identities in a country transfigured by new inequalities and moral compromises made in the name of survival. The author examines this educational experience from the perspective of those who grew up in the years of economic crisis following the fall of the Soviet Union, charting their ideals, their frustrations and their struggle to reconcile revolutionary rhetoric with twenty-first century reality.  Zusammenfassung This book explores how Cuba’s famously successful and inclusive education system has formed young Cubans’ political, social, and moral identities in a country transfigured by new inequalities and moral compromises made in the name of survival.
