Cuba: ¿corrupción y delincuencia organizada? Una visión histórico- evolutiva

Abstract

Cuba, like any country in the world has had implicit in its broad as a nation the consent of phenomena such as corruption, and even more severely, linked to events that envision its coexistence with organized crime. All of which is evidenced by graphing through the various historical stages that the island has gone through, the most significant facts and characteristics that demonstrate the existence of corruption in its link with certain glimpses of organized crime. In a historical journey that starts from the Spanish colonial stage, going through the pseudo-republic until today, it was found that in the preceding stages both phenomena were closely related with the impudity and impunity of the ruling governments whose degeneration impregnated in the Cuban society of the time a state of decay and rot. In the meantime, before what was once corruption and organized crime with a level of government centralization, comes as a way of exorcism the triumph of the Cuban revolution to purge all such ballast. However, during this new stage other forms of corruption and organized crime are manifested, associated, on the one hand, to the influence of the US imperialist regime and its interference and hegemonic methods towards the island, with the purpose of overthrowing the prevailing socialist system, and, in the other, to the mistakes made in the construction of this new society.
