Entrepreneurship in Cuba
edit18:29, 31 October 2017 (UTC)NCSTATE27 (talk)Cuba is in transition of changing their socio-economic model and entrepreneurship is a crucial factor of this process. The classical socialist system previously implemented in Cuba was defined by its political monopoly. State ownership was a major factor in this system as the government would own all businesses or the major industries of Cuba’s economy. This would mean private business owners would have no control over their companies under this political system[1]. During his term as the 18th Cuban President, Raul Castro has implemented reform socialism. Under this system Cuba’s government will continue to have much of their former power, although one of the reform’s objectives is to lower the government payroll by 20%[2]. Business will gain more political freedom such as decreased government regulations and expansion of the employment sector outside of the government. Cuba has only been able to decrease government payroll by 13% so far however, self employment has increased significantly by 187%[3]. In fact, the introduction of Entrepreneurship was largely influenced by the increasing demand for goods and services in Cuba. The state sector would not be able to supply for this increasing demand in Cuba. With the changes in government that has loosen the restraint of political regulations on businesses, there are still limitations that control the expansion of the self employment sector ranging from: funding for businesses, business education and no access to foreign investors that are interested in these companies[4]. The purpose of Reform socialism is to develop the economy by changing government policies while maintaining the foundation of the political economy. This allows the self employed to make more decisions without being constrained by the state government. Even so, the main concepts that are retained from the previous socialist system withhold entrepreneurs from their global economic potential. NCSTATE27 (talk) 18:30, 31 October 2017 (UTC)
