This book analyzes the evolution of the eldercare crisis in Cuba under the influence of advanced demographic aging, a prolonged economic crisis, and growing contradictions between the needs, values, and aspirations of the various generations.

Based on a twelve-year ethnographic study in Havana and rural areas, this book examines the current crisis of eldercare in Cuba, underpinned by advanced demographic aging. With great humanity and a lively narrative, Destremau-Zeitz shows how intergenerational households enact interdependency and solidarity in response to the many complexities of daily life and a protracted economic crisis. Beyond the multidimensional crisis of care, the author argues that Cuba is facing a crisis of social reproduction that appears specific to (ex)socialist countries but holds lessons for many of the world’s developed nations as well.
